I had considered filtering this post, but it could also be an open debate. Daria, Torunn, and anyone else considering taking or having any interest in art history, what interests you about art and art history? What do you wish to learn? What aspects or themes, across the swath of history we cannot hope to entirely cover in a single course, do you wish to explore? What art do you like today that you would like to see the roots of?

Art has been with us a long time, and though we may only see bits and pieces of the most ancient works here, we can appreciate today the wide array of human creativity. We can see it from the highest masterpieces to book and album covers, even in the graphic design we see all around us.

That sounds like fun! You should tell me if it's interesting! I'm trying to find some new things to try until next semester. Did you take classes last year, too?

(Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)


[info]brokendeal

I'm looking forward to it. History will be a lot more interesting when it is focusing on art, I think. Not that Doctor's classes weren't interesting but this will be better.

Why don't you try to get in this semester? I think they take late admissions and I bet the bureau would help. And, yeah, I did.

That sounds incredible. My guess would be somewhat of a Western focus? Starting in Sumer or Egypt perhaps?

What's Sumer? Is that like a land that's always summer or something?

I hope you will find it has been worth your time. What kind of art do you like?

I think I'm going to try to take some art classes in the spring. I didn't really prepare for the fall.

What have you signed up for?

I believe you could sign up for art, even without much preparation. But it is also fine to wait until spring.

I just want to save up some money first.

And I'm still kind of looking through classes right now.

Have you considered looking at what bits of art or trends are universal across worlds?

(Reply to this) (Thread)


[info]mintedking
2018-08-29 02:03 am UTC (link)
That would be fascinating. It has some difficulties to explore. In some ways it may be easier to explore in worlds represented by visual media, but it's something incredible. Some worlds are somewhat related and may share historical development or semi-parallel development due to that. Others, it would be incredible to see how it compared.

Most of what you just said sounds completely beyond me, but I'm glad you're excited. Let me know if you find out anything interesting.
