课程简介：This course looks at the development of visual arts and the different styles that have kept it changing. The organisation of the course is CHRONOLOGICAL, beginning 800 BCE and continuing to the present. The first part of the course follows art movements over the last 2000 years, the second part looks at Postmodernism, animation, graphic design, and art on film. The lectures will focus on examination of paintings, sculpture, architecture, and many other forms of art, so good listening skills and an interest in art are a basic requirement. 课程简介 Students do not have do know anything about art to take the course but should appreciate and learn about the artworks as presented to them.  Classes will be in English, although any important vocabulary will be given a Chinese translation. Grades will be earned through attendance, presentations (each student will give one short presentation), and an exam. Notes will be provided for each lecture in PDF form. Lectures will include more than 300 hi-res artwork images + one animation lecture with 1080p HD film excerpts, presentation is through multimedia (avi-mp3-jpg-pdf-doc-web), and not ppt, which is of inferior audio-visual quality. Mobile phones are forbidden.
