About The Course:
AHIS 470 offers a course in contemporary art history and critical writing in New York. Over the weeks of the Maymester term, students will view numerous exhibitions and installations in museums, galleries, and outdoor sites, as well as study the history of criticism with the goal of learning to write about art from looking closely at it. Studio visits with artists and meetings with a host of art professionals—from critics and editors to curators and educators—will offer a range of opinions that will inform group discussions and provide insight into the practical concerns such jobs entail.
