Description

This course introduces students to the different methodological approaches involved in the study of art history; in other words, students will study the ideas that inform how art history is created. Students come to understand the variety of perspectives brought to bear on art objects, and through a case study of their own, learn to judiciously apply these approaches. The course also addresses key research techniques and materials to the study of art history and culminates in a research proposal utilizing the methodologies explored in class.
