芸術への攻撃

In this one time course students will learn about times in history where works of art have been attacked. We'll go over and discuss theories of why someone may attack or damage art. From political demonstrations to times of insanity, some of these attacks are funny and others are much more frightening. We'll speculate if the attack of art can be justified. The Little Mermaid statue in Denmark has been decapitated at least three times. The Mona Lisa has had multiple attacks after her theft. Even times where artists attack their own masterpieces.

Mona Lisa and The Virgin and Child with Saint Anne and Saint John the Baptist by da Vinci
Rokeby Venus
White Cross by Malevick
