Emphasizing firsthand encounters with artworks through visits to local collections and current exhibitions, this seminar imparts techniques of formal observation, conceptual understanding, and verbal argumentation about individual works of art. Through constant engagement with a range of art objects students will establish a familiarity with the tools of both textural and verbal art analysis, and the confidence to share this knowledge through public address.Online course sections will be delivered mostly asynchronously, with some synchronous components that will be outlined in the course syllabus where applicable. Please use posted meeting times as a rough guide for scheduled meeting times. Other arrangements can be made with faculty for those students who are working from time zones that are not compatible with these scheduled meeting times.
