Art Criticism and Discussion

Lifelong Learning | Registration opens 8/7/2025 9:00 AM EDT

This is a discussion-based course, where we will focus on pieces that served as turning points in the art historical canon. Each class, we will discuss one piece, and afterwards I will allow time for discussion, for certain current events in the art world, as well as time for students to discuss works they have seen and/or are passionate about. Students can email in the week before any images they would like me to share, and I will provide a short lesson on the era to begin the conversation.
