Program Details
In the Art History at Brandeis University you will study a range of forms of visual expression, including painting, sculpture, graphics, architecture, urbanism, garden design and spectacle, as well as modern and contemporary media. You will learn how artists from different time periods and regions, influenced by environment, society and religion, have produced artifacts of lasting resonance. And you will acquire the knowledge and terminology you need to analyze the art of the past while critically engaging with the art of the present.
Specifically, you will gain a solid familiarity with core monuments and artists, as well as with the principal subfields:
- Renaissance and Baroque art
- Ancient and medieval art
- Modern and contemporary art
