ART-3240: Contemporary View of Prehistoric to Gothic Art

Have we really changed since we walked out of the plains and began to develop the civilized world? Beginning with the Venus of Willendorf and the caves of Lascaux, this course will explore answers to this core question found in the art of Mesopotamia, Egypt, Greece, Rome, and Africa, amongst other locales. Through a contemporary investigation of the art of ancient cultures, we will appraise our shared world history of art and bring the art of the past into our lives today. The course will offer the latest scholarly information along with a museum trip, slide presentations, and videos for students to best understand and relate to the art made by our distant relatives.
