AHI 183G - PI Art of Indigenous Peoples


(Perspective I Global course) The purpose of this course is to broadly survey art and cultural artifacts of the indigenous peoples of Africa, Australia, the Andies, Mesoamerica, North America, Polynesia, New Guinea, India, China and Japan as they appeared in different periods and cultural contexts from prehistoric through modern times. Specifically, we will investigate architecture, painting, sculpture, and the minor arts evolved and functioned. We will also examine the position of the arts in society, the ways in which various cultures have used the visual arts (past sources and original contexts), and the multitude of ideas that art served to express.
