(此課程大綱為暫訂版，正確版以開學後社會系網站公告的版本為準)
現代繪畫運動在西方藝術史上構成了一次極為複雜而關鍵的改變，包括有別於古典風格的現代性精神展現、藝術場域自主性的形成，與傳統藝術典範之間的斷裂等變革，皆在十九世紀前後的藝壇上隆重登場。本課程將融入藝術社會學的觀點，並鎖定西方現代主義以降的視覺藝術作品，並以繪畫、雕塑領域為主，探討現代主義的藝術性，以及藝術的現代性，包括藝術領域如何逐漸在社會中及藝術界裡取得自主的地位，脫離舊有隸屬於其他社會部門的關係。這份自主性將創作者的主體性和時代性展現在作品當中。我們同時將探索現代主義作品內含的美學、主體性、社會性，以及整體的現代性精神。現代主義藝術的主體性至少指涉三個面向：一、藝術家作為個人的主體性; 二、藝術家作為獨立藝術家的主體性; 三、藝術及藝術場域作為自主領域的主體性。若納入藝術創作者以外的行動者，藝術的主體性尚可包括藝術史學家歷史觀點的主觀性，以及藝術評論者批評藝術家及作品時的主觀性。本學期處理的流派大約從印象派前夕到戰後抽象表現主義為止，礙於學期週數所限而無法窮盡所有風格派別。
為了對現代藝術史發展具備基礎的瞭解，主要讀本的選擇方面，邵大箴主編的《西方美術欣賞》與E.H.Gombrich的經典《藝術的故事》，將成為藝術史的基礎材料，佐以英國藝術史學家與哲學家Herbert Read （1893-1968）所著的 A Concise History of Modern Painting (現代繪畫史)作為教材。前者清楚提供藝術簡史，後者聚焦於現代繪畫的學術闡述：Read特重現代藝術史上思想觀念的演進，以及藝術發展的前後呼應關係。即使作者難免依照主觀意見，將某些藝術家與畫派納入或排除於著作之外，然而這些特殊觀點及其背後的理論依據，皆可形成課堂上討論的議題。
學界少見全然符合本科目旨趣的既定書目，因此課程大綱所條列的讀本及參考書目，主要是為了幫助學生建立相關知識基礎，教師將額外從多元文獻中整理製作PPT及文本講綱，讀本並非定於一尊。課堂裡整合傳授的知識與討論的內容，都將納入期中／期末考試的範圍。學生因此務必出席每堂課程、參與討論，並非考前獨自閱讀文本所能應付。為了培養學生的思考與表達能力，考試皆以申論題形式進行測驗，學生應結合藝術史、美學、社會學等跨領域的思維，形成自己對於藝術作品獨到的見解。除了課堂上教師的講演之外，也將安排專題演講活動。學生平日表現以及出席狀況，都將納入評分內容，教師保有加減學期總分數的權限。
(This course is probably a regular version, and the correct version is based on the version of the announcement of the post-school social system website)
Modern painting movement has become a very complex and critical change in the history of Western art, including the development of modern spirit different from the classical style, the formation of artistic domain autonomy, and the breaking between the classical and traditional art, all of which were grandly launched on the forum before and after the 19th century. This course will integrate the views of artistic society, and lock in visual art works that have descended from modern Western theory. It will focus on the fields of painting and sculpture, explore the artistic nature of modernism and the modernity of art, including how the art field gradually gains its own independent position in society and the art world, and removes the relationships that have always been associated with other social departments. This autonomy displays the creator's subjectivity and contemporaryity in his works. We will also explore the aesthetics, subjectivity, sociality, and overall modern spirit contained in modern works. The subjectivity of modern theories refers to at least three aspects: 1. The subjectivity of an artist as an individual; 2. The subjectivity of an artist as an independent artist; 3. The subjectivity of an art and art field as an independent domain. If an actor other than an artist is included, the subjectivity of the art can also include the viewpoint of the historian's historical viewpoint and the viewpoint of the artist and his works when the artist criticizes the artist and his works. The school-treatment processed in this period lasted from the eve of Impressionism to the end of the abstract expression theory after the war, and was limited by the number of weeks of the school period and could not match all style schools.
In order to understand the basic foundation of the development of modern art history, the main aspects of reading selection, "Appreciation of Western Art" compiled by Shao Dazhen and E.H. Gombrich's classic "Stories of Art" will become the basic materials of artistic history, accompanied by A Concise History of Modern Painting (Modern Painting) written by British artist historian and philosopher Herbert Read (1893-1968) as the textbook. The former clearly provides an artistic history, while the latter focuses on the academic description of modern painting: Read particularly emphasizes the evolution of ideological concepts in the history of modern art, as well as the relationship between the past and later development of art. Even if the author is unable to include or exclude certain artists and painting schools from the work in accordance with the opinions of the subject, these special views and the theoretical basis behind them can form discussion topics in class.
The academic community rarely sees established books that are completely in line with the purpose of this subject. Therefore, the reading books and reference books listed in the course are mainly to help students establish relevant knowledge foundations. Teachers will additionally organize and produce PPTs and text lectures from multiple texts. Reading books are not determined by one. The knowledge and discussion content integrated in the classroom will be included in the mid-term/final exam scope. Therefore, students must attend each course, participate in and discuss, and it cannot be done by reading the text by yourself before the exam. In order to cultivate students' thinking and expression skills, the tests are tested in the form of application topics. Students should combine cross-domain thinking such as artistic history, aesthetics, and social sciences to form their own unique insights on artistic works. In addition to the teacher's lectures in class, special lecture activities will also be arranged. The daily performance of students and attendance will be included in the ratings, and the teacher reserves the right to increase the total score of the school year.
