Art History 1

Interpreting the origins of art gives students a unique perspective on their own work.

In our four week Art History 1 course, students will analyze various art forms including painting, sculpture, and architecture over changing periods of time. Beginning with the study of the earliest cave paintings, students will create art to immerse themselves in the content and study movements and masters over changing periods of time. NOTE: This course covers many works of fine art over the centuries. Often, great artists portrayed the male and female form in various positions and clothing. Efforts have been made to be as conservative as possible. However, some artists and their works could not be represented without allowing partial nudity or suggestive positions.
