Non-European World Art I

Course Long Title

Non-European World Art I

Course Description

This course is a survey of the painting, sculpture, crafts and architecture of a range of the cultures, which may include Asia, the Middle East, and/or the Pacific Island through time. The course objective is to develop a multi-cultural awareness of humanity's approaches to the visual arts and how they are a reflection of those cultures values, geographical and cultural environments, and reactions to history. There is also an acknowledgement that any culture does not exist and develop in a vacuum--while the course is intended to explore a range of Asian, Middle Eastern, and/or Pacific Island cultures, forays into influences beyond these areas may be deemed necessary. The class instructor will have discretion as to which cultures will be considered. Prerequisite: ENG 112 or WRI 118. This course fulfills the Cultural and Global Place requirement in the General Education Curriculum.
