ART-152 Art History Ii: Renaissance to Impressio
This course provides a foundation for understanding the history of art and architecture from the Renaissance to the present. Beginning with the thirteenth century in Florence, this course will survey visual culture and artistic activity through the Age of Empiricism, concluding with the rise of Modernism and the International Avant-Garde in the twentieth century. In addition, this course will study a broad range of cultures from around the world. Since the ideal way to experience art is to look at it in person, the class will also take two museum trips.
