CADN 6B01 Methods and Theory in Art History 0.50 Credit(s) Seminar |
|
This course charts out the range of methodological strategies used by art historians to analyze, interpret and critique works of art. While formal, stylistic and iconographic methods are traditionally central to art historical practice, diverse theoretical perspectives and specialized terminologies have been developed in recent decades that complexify the art historical enterprise. Approaches to be discussed include Marxism, psychoanalysis, post-structuralism, cultural studies, feminism and post-colonialism. One objective of this course is to assist students in identifying theories and methods that are pertinent to their own research interests. |
