Subject:

Art History

Description:

An examination of the crucial roles that images and objects play in shaping our society.

The course emphasizes developing a sense of "visual literacy" and becoming more self-consciously aware of the act and nature of looking, in a world in which ideas increasingly are communicated in visual, rather than linguistic, form.
