57. LA 132 Art: Renaissance to Contemporary This course covers Western art and selected non-Western cultures from the Renaissance through the present. We shall consider both the formal development of art and its cultural/historical context. The course will serve to develop the student's knowledge and skills in the analysis of both the various mediums and periods of art covered in the context of the semester.
