The Ante has Gone Up: The Conscience of the Post-Modern Artist

In this lecture, Dr. Beebe articulates the transition from modernism through post-modernism after World War II, specifically in the artists' relationship to the anima.

NOTE: John Beebe's lecture includes 102 slides. Because he names most of them, we were able to find and include nearly all of the 102 images used. If the specific work of art or image could not be found, a similar one by the same artist was inserted in its place. They are included in the download.
