This course surveys the visual culture and art of China, Korea, and Japan. We begin with archaeological findings from the late Neolithic cultures and end with the early twentieth century transcultural encounters that formed modern art in East Asia. Emphasizing global interconnections and exchange across East Asia as well as other parts of the world, we consider how visual expression contructed a wide range of perspectives on death and the afterlife, faith and devotion, society and community, empire and governance, and the pressures of market economies.

This course examines chronologically and thematically the unfolding of painting, architecture, sculpture and other artistic media from antiquity to the early 16th century in a global framework. Students will learn to analyze works of art visually and understand them within their cultural, religious, social, ideological, and economic contexts.

First half of a survey of art history from prehistoric times to the 20th century. Chronological and systematic approach; either a basis for more detailed study of individual periods in upper-level art history courses, or a solid general foundation for a heightened appreciation of the heritage of art. More professionally oriented than ART-HIST 115. Background for upper-level art history courses; required of majors. (Gen.Ed. AT, DG)
