ART HISTORY BOOTCAMP: History of World Art
ART HISTORY BOOTCAMP: History of World Art
This course is a comprehensive introduction to the history of world art from 3,000,000 BC to the present. The larger goal of this course is to provide the learner with visual literacy across cultural divides. The more specific goals of this course are for learners to, first, develop a critical understanding of art historical terms, methodologies, art objects and mediated environment meanings, within specific global, cultural, political, economic and religious contexts; and second, to apply this information to their own cultural experience. Upon the successful completion of this course, learners will be able to analyze these artworks and related cultural relationships across place and time. Human and cultural diversity, therefore, will serve as a pedagogical framework for our evaluation of global art and its paired social systems. Honing these intellectual, social and practical skills, learners will build on earlier understandings of visual culture and its role in society—that is, their interactions with images in social media and popular films in order to evaluate the significance of visual media as a reflection of cultural diversity--throughout history and today. This course is helpful for those studying for the AP Art History exam, for learners prepping for high school or university art history, adult learners interested in art history and world cultures, and educators looking for a refresher course. Welcome! I'm glad you're here.
