ART 321 - Topics in Art History I

Institution:

Rocky Mountain College

Subject:

Description:

On demand. 3 semester hours. Choosing from the prehistoric (as early as 30,000 BC) through the Gothic (as late as AD 1500), this course may explore such topics as Ancient Egypt, Bronze Age and Classical Greece, Imperial Rome, or Medieval Europe. Study focuses on art materials, techniques, style, pre-historical and historical context, aesthetics, and criticism. While traditional methods of studying art history are used (e.g. slide lectures, discussion, written exams, and papers), students are expected to authentically replicate an objet d'art from the studied historical periods as a major project. This course is also web-enhanced, with an interactive class website and required web research and project presentation.
