Art History II
This course is an introduction to understanding art. You will become aware of the relationship of media, artistic expression and the context of the cultural period which formed the art object. For most students the art of our own times is difficult to understand; for this reason, the main emphasis of the course will be contemporary culture and its interpretation of traditional imagery. Through written critical analysis of visual art issues students will gain experience discussing how art is created and what it means.
