History of Art: Critical and Contextual Studies A Level

UPDATED 20151218 14:36:57

From the Renaissance to Modernism and beyond, this course is an excellent introduction to the key aspects of art and its importance in the way we view art and society today. Young people aged 16-18. You will study art history and contemporary art, from painting, sculpture and textiles to photography, film and architecture. We will analyse themes and issues, and consider the historical, sociological and philosophical factors which influence our understanding of art. We will explore how ideas of beauty change in different cultures and periods, as well as consider how artists have interpreted the idea of utopia. During the second year you will apply your knowledge and interest from the first year to iconic art movements. The course involves many trips and visits to London galleries and museums.
