Welcome to the Department of Art History.
Art History is a discipline within the Humanities
that examines the history of works of art in the broadest possible
context. Study involves the investigation of the world’s monuments
and images from a variety of perspectives, ranging from physical
investigations of the works of art themselves, to biographical inquiries
into the lives of artists, to examinations of the social, political
and historical contexts within which works of art are made. Works
of art in all media (painting, sculpture, architecture, graphic
media including printmaking, drawing and photography and time arts)
are of interest to the art historian. |
