Art Appreciation is designed to introduce students to the world of art. It equips them with a vocabulary with which to discuss art, elevates their visual awareness, explores some of the main "issues" in art and introduces selected historical/cultural contexts.

Basic to the teaching of Arts 1301 is my personal/professional belief that life is fuller and more enjoyable when we awaken our visual senses. Art can be that stimilus that motivates us to pay more attention to the rich visual environment in which we live, work and play.
