ART 216H - Studies in Visual Culture (Prehistory through the 1750s)(3.00) This course engages students in a focused study of six or seven specific, momentous periods in the history of world art dating from prehistory to the mid-eighteenth century. The selection of topics will be determined by the particular organizing principle adopted by the course instructor. For example, the organizing principle could be that of medium (architecture, painting, sculpture, decorative arts); of belief systems (religion, philosophy); of patronage; or of prevailing technological inventions and discoveries. By studying selected moments in the history of world art in some depth, students will gain an awareness of how art objects and visual culture both shape and represent societies and their histories.
Components: Lecture Topics: Masterworks of Visual Art and Narration Attributes: Arts and Humanities (GEP), Culture (GEP) You must have been admitted to the Honors College to take this course.
