ARTS 1613 Survey of Art-Caves to Cathedrals

This course surveys significant art and artifacts from prehistoric to medieval Gothic times. Emphasis is on the cyclical nature of dominant themes in the world of art. The course provides a basis for students to understand and appreciate the intercultural concepts, theories, and analysis associated with ancient to pre-Renaissance sculpture, architecture, painting, illumination, and metalcraft. Students will complete writing assignments appropriate for the course and subject. Note: Because colleges divide historical periods differently, completing the entire Survey of Art sequence at one college is strongly recommended. IAI: F2 901.
