Students will explore such ideas as what is Art, when does something become Art, and who owns Art? Students will use both formal essays and low stakes writing assignments to explore the relationships between art and society, art and art criticism, as well as their own reactions to various works of art. By writing frequently, students will begin to develop a deeper understanding of themselves while honing their analytic and communication skills.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Contact<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>For any help with the class, you can contact Prof. French.
