They will be able to apply the visual “Elements of Style” to critically analyze the quality and meaning of various works. There is more focus on individual artists in Art History 202 than in Art History 201. Students will identify certain similarities that artists of a given period all share. Students will use the techniques of critical analysis to recognize and evaluate the defining characteristics of individual artist’s work and compare and contrast these works in terms of quality, meaning, function and evolution within the artist’s time period.
