L2 Art History - Full Year

NCEA L2 - Art History

Course Overview

Level 2 Art History is a stimulating and enjoyable course for all students with an interest in the visual arts, classics and general history. Art History is an academic discipline that provides insight and understanding of how art works reflect the time in which they were created as well as the artistic endeavors of the individual artists who created them. We delve into the historical/ social/religious background and the prevailing philosophies of the time. The knowledge and skills gained in this course can be applied to tertiary study and careers, in particular, architecture, art and design, and also advertising, tourism and museum studies as well as being culturally enriching. There is no need to have practical artistic ability; an interest in art is sufficient.

I LOVE Art History it is an underestimated subject. In our modern society images have become more and more prevalent and I believe everyone should be visually literate as I genuinely believe it will enrich their lives. I am an animal and art loving Brummie (from Birmingham, England) who now lives on a crop farm with my partner, two children and growing menagerie in Canterbury.
