*Z1A The Human Figure in World Art

Art & Music | Available (Membership Required)

This course will examine the ways that the human figure has been represented in art from around the world. It will include images from Europe, West Asia (the Middle East), Africa, South Asia (particularly India), East Asia (specifically China and Japan), pre-Columbian America, Latin America, and the United States. Except for the lectures on European art, the course is not chronological, except within some of the presentations. Instead, it attempts to be representative of the variety of ways in which the human figure has been depicted around the world over the centuries.
