Abstract
A survey of Western art from 1300 to the present. Special emphasis will be placed on the development and expansion of Renaissance ideals of art, and then the reassessment of these ideals in the Nineteenth and Twentieth Centuries. This course will cover major artists, artistic periods, "masterpieces," and other works of enduring cultural/social/historical/artistic merit across the history of Western art. We will discuss both European and American art, however there is a clear emphasis the art of Western Europe for art. The class requires some reading, a lot of careful looking, writing exercises, and, yes, memorization of names, dates, and titles. Primarily a lecture with some discussion.
