The Courses(All courses carry 3 credits unless otherwise noted.) The 100-level courses are introductory surveys intended primarily for first-year students, although they may be taken at the sophomore level or above. The 300-level courses (ART-HIST 302-355) are the immediate continuation of the introductory courses for students at the sophomore level and above. They offer a more detailed survey of the art and architecture of a particular period. The Topical and Special Topics Courses (ART-HIST 381-397) offer the more advanced student the opportunity to explore select problems in greater detail. Qualified undergraduates also may enroll in 600-level or 700-level graduate seminars. These, as well as the Special Topics courses, vary from semester to semester; detailed descriptions are available in the History of Art and Architecture Office, W301 South College. 100 Survey of Art: Ancient to Medieval (AT DG) (4 cr) (1st sem) 110 Survey of Art: Renaissance to Modern (AT DG) (4 cr ) (2nd sem) 115 Visual Arts, Artists, and Cultures: An Introduction to Looking (AT DG) (4 cr) 116 Art and Visual Culture of East Asia (AT DG) (4 cr) 118 History of Architecture and the Built Environment (AT DG) (4 cr) 213 Venice: Art, History, and Environment (AT) (4 cr) 302 Evaluating Greek Art: Ancient Culture, Scientific Technology and Modern Politics 303 Roman Art: Politics, Identity and Portraiture 305 Early Medieval Art 307 Romanesque and Gothic 308 Medieval Painting 310 Art and the City-State in Early Renaissance Italy 313 High Renaissance Art and Mannerism in Italy 314 The Baroque Artist in Italy 323 European Art 1780-1880 324 Modern Art 1880 to Present 327 Contemporary Art 328 American Art to 1860 329 American Art, 1860-1940 334 History of the Decorative Arts 342 19th-Century Architecture: Reform, History and Technology 343 20th-Century Architecture: Socialism, Capitalism and Globalization 345 Architecture Now 347 History of Islamic Art and Architecture I 348 History of Islamic Art and Architecture II 354 Art of Buddhism 355 Chinese Painting 370 Junior Year Writing 381-8 Special Topics in Art History 391A Seminar: Drawing in Contemporary Art 391B Seminar: Roman Art 391C Seminar: Caravaggio 391M Seminar: Global 1950s: Beyond Abstract Expressionism 391P Seminar: Identity Politics and Art: 1960s to Today 392M Seminar: Medieval Art of the Book 397A Impressionism and Post-Impressionism 397C Nineteenth Century Art: Modernizing Sculpture, Canova to Duchamp 397P Medieval Portraiture 397V Vexed Antiquity 397W The Oriental Carpet in East and West 398 Practicum: Careers in Art History (1 cr) 398M Practicum: Museum Studies (1 or 2 cr) 415 Methods of Art History (IE)
