		Course Description
		This course is an overview of the world's greatest paintings, sculptures, and architecture. We will be studying different art periods and styles, along with famous works of art* and artists, especially painters. We will also learn how to look at art by examining the elements of art and the principles of design and composition. In studying about the history of art, we will also examine the history "in" art, as many works of art are a great source of historical information. Students will also view three motion pictures about artists and a few documentaries. Those taking this course will be doing a final project that will allow them to choose, in their opinion, the world's greatest artists and works of art. * The students may be exposed to a few works of art that show the naked human form, but these are classic works of art that are normally found in art books and public galleries and are not generally considered offensive.
