Open to all undergraduates. An introduction to art in which the visual elements and principles are examined through a study of the key monuments in the history of art from cave paintings to the present. Important styles of painting, sculpture, architecture, and twentieth century media are explored with attention to the personalities of the artists and the cultures in which they lived.
This is a general overview of the subject of art, not a historical survey. The meat of the course will be understanding the choices available to the artists from any period, and the essential unities common to all the arts. Analysis of composition and principles of design will be stressed. Techniques and materials will be explored in relation to their expressive possibilities. A trip to museums in Munich is required for all students in this class. (Munich Afternoon Field Trip required)
Class Rules & Attendance The University of New Orleans International Summer School program has a mandatory class attendance policy. All students are required to attend class for all classes and any required lectures and field trips. No unexcused absences are allowed. However, UIBK students who have to miss a UNO class due to UIBK examinations in the first two weeks of our program, can receive one excused absence for this. Any further unexcused class days will result in an academic penalty. Each faculty member determines the penalty for missed classes. Most professors deduct a letter grade for each additional missed class day. For details, please refer to your course syllabi, which will be distributed on the first day of class.
