Welcome to Art, War, and Conflict! In this ten week class, students will learn about the connection between art and warfare--how it is used to promote war and for responses to war. The course will cover art from all over the world and its connection to global conflicts. Through the duration of the course, students will explore various time periods and cultures through class discussions, lecture, and homework assignments. The course schedule can be found under the Syllabus tab.

Throughout the course, specific artworks, artists, and case studies will be tailored based on the instructor's expertise and available resources. The aim is to foster critical thinking, engage in meaningful discussions, and deepen our understanding of the multifaceted connections between art and war.

Maestría en Historia desde University of Colorado at Boulder
I have been teaching introductory art history courses at the undergraduate level for many years now and one of the biggest complaints I get from my own students, who are primarily college freshman and sophomores, is that they were not exposed to the arts sooner. I wanted to develop this introductory course for middle and high schoolers so that they could have a foundation for talking about the arts earlier than at the college level and be exposed to history in a new way! Further, my own research focuses on the exclusionary aspects of how art history is studied and I like to expose students to artists they may have never heard of before.
