Overview
What you will study
This An Introduction to Art History course offered by The Courtauld Institute of Art aims to discuss examples from antiquity through to the present day, but we are both most at home in the period from the early seventeenth to the late nineteenth centuries and will give particular weight to case studies from this period.
Programme Structure
The program focuses on:
- a close and critical look at the ‘periods’, ‘movements’ and ‘isms’ by which the history of Western art is conventionally structured
- stylistic developments, and their contexts, and debate some of the problems inherent in periodisation
- works of art as material objects and as means of communication with the viewer
- how works were made and what important representational conventions they employed
- the range of different approaches to art history taken now and in the past
- the role museums and art galleries play in the understanding and interpretation of works of art
