Description


The Art History Minor introduces students from other disciplines to the study of art history and its main methodologies. This includes: describing, analyzing, and explaining the artwork in its historical context, reading and interpreting different types of sources, and write different kinds of texts. The student must take one compulsory subject and five elective subjects within the specific areas of “Times and Spaces”, “Materials” and “Thematic Courses” that will allow them to approach the Art History from an inter and multidisciplinary framework, between the global, the regional and the local, from prehistory to the present day.
