2022 ST.ART Intensive Concentration

Art History & Museum Studies: Where Art History Ends and Culture Begins

Art isn’t neutral and neither are you.

Look beyond the surface and dive into discussion about art and its cultural context–investigating the why, how and who of artworks and art movements. Through an array of project-based discussion, students will uncover many exciting possibilities of pursuing art history.  Projects may include: curating, op-ed articles, social media exhibition campaigns, generating educational programs, planning artist talks, virtual museum visits, artist research and presentations, creating wall text and more.
