This semester we explore the
beginning of art history. We start with artwork which pre-dates recorded
history, such as ancient cave paintings, and move around the world and through
history looking at various art periods, styles, materials, and movements. We
will conclude the semester in 17th century Europe with Realism, just
before the beginning of the Modern era of art. Throughout the semester you will
learn about new forms of art, create personally expressive projects, discuss
and write about art in Virtual Museum Visits, and write an essay on the work of
a Premodern artist of your choice.
