Overview
It’s been said the Arts explore the human condition. AP Art History explores what it means to be "human", by examining personal and political Identity from past to present, from local to global perspectives and through the disciplinary framework of Art History, Literature and technology. In AP Art History students thematically and chronologically, explore the trajectory of global identity as it has evolved over time in Art, Architecture and Literature, to the present day. Students critically examine global cultural attitudes and events through the lens of Art History, and technology, from antiquity to the present time. The AP Art History course covers art from the Paleolithic period through postmodernism and is designed to provide students with the same material covered in an introductory college course in art history. Students gain knowledge of architecture, sculpture, painting, and other art forms within diverse historical and cultural contexts.
In this course, students prepare for the AP Art History Exam.
