Alfred University

Subject:

Art

Description:

2 hours. An introduction to the principles of electric kiln design. Students learn how to build and repair common types of electric kilns. Students must enroll in both lecture and lab. (Spring) ARTH 121 - Wild Spirits and Divine Kings 2 hours. This course introduces students to art from a variety of cultures that Westerners long dismissed as "primitive." The premises that all art performs a function and that artists contribute to the orderly functioning of society allow us to look at Non-Western art without the bias and ethnocentrism that have historically colored our views. The class investigates such aspects of African, Oceanic, Native American and Pre-Columbian art as style and iconography, but focuses on its use in religious, political, and social contexts.
