About

The Making Sense of Key Concepts of Western Art - 'Nature', 'Life' and Lifelikeness course offered by The Courtauld Institute of Art will be integrating close analysis of texts and objects by canonical figures such as Van Eyck, Vasari and Dürer with those of other important, now less familiar artists and writers.

Overview

What you will study

  • The unfamiliar animals, societies and places that Europeans encountered abroad raised further difficult issues since even lifelike images of these phenomena were generally unverifiable by their first audiences. 
  • Closer to home, technologies such as the microscope, telescope and camera obscura provided radically new ways of viewing nature, challenging existing artistic approaches to depicting the material world.
  • The Making Sense of Key Concepts of Western Art - 'Nature', 'Life' and Lifelikeness course offered by The Courtauld Institute of Art will debate these and further questions which lie at the heart of our understanding of Western art.

Programme Structure

The program focuses on:

  • What aspects of nature should the artist focus on? 
  • And what exactly was a truthful depiction? 
  • An unvarnished record of external appearances – or was there a higher, more perfect truth that the artist should seek to capture?
