Global Conceptualism?

Traces networks of conceptual art through case studies in New York, Beirut, Amsterdam, Los Angeles, Buenos Aires, Moscow, Vancouver, Tokyo, and other prominent scenes. Centers around the invention and dissemination of the conceptual art through seminal journals; use of information and new media platforms; relationship between "dematerialized" art and immaterial labor; history of the mediums (painting, sculpture, photography, video, dance, film, and poetry) in the movement's wake, and its legacy in contemporary art.
