ARTH 016. Italian Renaissance Art


This course will provide a rich introduction to the art and architecture produced in Florence, Rome, Venice, Siena, Padua, Mantua, and other important cultural centers in Italy from the late 14th to the 16th century. In addition to learning about painting, sculpture, drawings, prints, and architecture, we will also study stage design, temporary festival decorations, banners and costumes. A full range of issues related to the production and reception of artworks will be addressed, including the representation of the individual, the state, and religion. We will also examine art and anatomy, art and gender, the critical responses these works elicited, and the theories of art developed by artists and non-artists alike.
