Hands-On Art History

Students will learn about famous works of art, the artists who created them, and why they are important for us to know, as they journey through history through the beautiful lens of art. Each week students will be introduced to an art time period including Prehistoric Art, The Middle Ages, The Renaissance and Modern Art; European and African Art; Baroque, Romanticism, Realism; Impressionism and Neo-impressionism, famous artists, and new art techniques. By learning these famous works of art, students will be able to notice how often they are used in films, books, and even the video games of our age. Students will not only learn to look closely at art to experience its grandeur but to also speak its language. For homework, students will put into practice what they’ve learned, by creating works of art of their own, based on those pieces they study. This unique course is both academic and fun!
