ARTH 2730 - Art History III: Rebirth, Reason, and Regalia

3 Credit(s)

A counterpoint of Western artistic traditions from the fifteenth, sixteenth, and seventeenth centuries against the art of India, China, Japan, and the Americas from roughly the same time. This course will present the conquest of pictorial space that developed in the Renaissance and extended through the Baroque era. It will include forays into the areas of sculpture, architecture, and craft arts and will contrast all this with the very different sensibilities of the selected Eastern cultures and some native New World cultures.
