ARTT-283 Art History II

This course provides a survey of visual arts in the Western tradition from the Renaissance to the present day. Students will learn how to analyze and interpret works of art and architecture created over the past seven centuries. The course will examine artworks in their historical contexts in order to demonstrate how changes in the visual arts are tied to political, social, and economic developments. While exploring the ideas that artists and architects have expressed in their works, students will be encouraged to make connections with our own culture and the ways in which we use visual expression to shape our world.
