Abstract
Students will be introduced to the major artists, movements, and critical issues in Italian Renaissance Art. We will investigate the techniques, styles, contexts, imagery and the ways in which art was produced, displayed, and critically received. Other topics covered will include the role of the artist and patron in Renaissance Italy. Students will be exposed to current debates, controversies, and methodologies pertinent to art historical study. An important component of the course involves critical responses to actual works of Renaissance art. For this reason, students will be required to make several visits to the Memphis Brooks Museum of Art. Participation in class discussions is expected. Students should have previously completed art 232 though it is not required.
