Storia dell'Arte contemporanea - Art and politics in the Italian 20th century from the end of the Second World War to the 1970s (PhD)
Prerequisiti
The seminar is intended for PhD students in the Humanities Class, but can also be followed by undergraduate students as a logical supplement to the seminar intended for them. Given the subject matter, which spans artistic, political, ideological and cultural-historical culture, it is also intended for an audience not exclusively of art historians
