3/12/10 Art History I

Today's class- Today I gave the first midterm exam of the semester. Current events journals that had been turned in last class were returned to the students.

Homework- Students should have a new current events article for their journal for Tuesday, March 16th. Remember, you should provide both a written summary and your reactions to the article, such as what you thought of the artist/artwork/exhibition/event/etc, any ideas it inspired in you, and any particularly positive or negative response you had. Those who still haven't turned in their journals should do so next class to get some partial credit.

It is suggested that students start reading chapter 7, in Book 2, to familiarize themselves with the material.

For next class 3/16/10- Bring Book 2 (Medieval Art) and a notebook. We will be starting our study of Jewish, early Christian, and Byzantine art. The exam will be returned graded and we will briefly review it.
