This class will survey the earliest arts, cultures throughout much of the world. Over four weeks we will walk through the galleries to explore the CAM collection that wonderfully presents earliest peoples and the ways in which they lived and their beliefs. Rather than lecture, the instructor will lead a tour of the collection and supplement it with an iPad presentation of works of art from other museum collections. This will permit more of a discussion rather than a lecture of the histories of art. We will end the series with a look at the new and beautiful exhibition of the permanent collection of Middle Eastern Art. Students will develop a broad understanding of the most representative works from each era and region, while also learning how specific objects from the museum’s collection fit within the history of art.
