ARTS 263 Survey of Non-Western Art

This course introduces students to the arts and architecture of the Americas, Africa, Oceania, Southeast Asia, and the Far East. Course material covers a broad geographic and chronological span. The relationship of art to geography, social status, gender, belief systems, and lifecycle stages will form the framework of this course. Through exposure to the artistic products of non-western peoples, students gain a more international appreciation of aesthetics and the sociological, spiritual, and political content in visual art.
