La revolución de la Edad Moderna dio como resultado un cambio al mundo del arte. Diversos eventos dieron paso a magníficas obras pictóricas, esculturales y arquitectónicas que aun, hoy en día, se siguen apreciando. De esta época, resalta el Renacimiento, como un movimiento que surgió en Italia y que buscaba en el saber de la razón mediante los valores clásicos de la antigua Grecia.  

De este periodo también se desprenden grandes artistas, escultores y pintores, quienes buscaban presentar una contraposición total al oscuro periodo que le precede, el arte gótico. Por otra parte, la arquitectura recibió la influencia del Barroco, la cual le brinda una estructura dinámica a la composición, con varios centros y ejes según la complejidad del diseño.

The Art of the Modern Age brought with it the reconstruction of nature and embellished complex geometric figures” 

Postgraduate Diploma in Art in the Modern Age

Art in the Modern Age is that which developed from the sixteenth century to the end of the eighteenth century. It was a period of important social, political and cultural changes, which were reflected in the artistic production of the time. During the Modern Age, art began to move away from the medieval and Renaissance style, giving rise to new trends such as Mannerism, Baroque, Rococo and Neoclassicism.

Mannerism was one of the first artistic movements of the Modern Age, characterized by the exaggeration of forms and the introduction of fantastic elements. In the Baroque, art became more emotive and dramatic, with an emphasis on light and shadow, and techniques such as chiaroscuro were used to create a sense of depth.

Rococo was characterized by elegance, ornamentation and the use of pastel and light colors. Finally, Neoclassicism was a movement that returned to ancient and classical Greek and Roman aesthetics, with a search for harmony and simplicity in forms.

During the Modern Age, art also experienced an important technological development: the invention of the printing press allowed the mass dissemination of works of art and the creation of engravings, and the appearance of perspective in the Renaissance allowed greater realism in the representation of depth and forms.

The main objective of this program is to provide students with an in-depth and carefully analytical view of art created in the Modern Age. Students will learn to identify and assess the technique and styles employed by the artists, as well as understand and evaluate the socio-cultural aspects that influenced the creation of the pieces. Research and critical analysis skills will also be taught in order for students to view Early Modern art as a tool for understanding history.
