Course Description
This course is suitable for students enrolled in any program in any faculty. Whether you are thinking
about majoring in Art History, or you love to make art, or you want to understand better what you
are looking at when you go to a museum or travel the world, I look forward to working with you in
this class!
The course is designed to demonstrate and teach students some of the basic tools with which they
can analyze secular and religious works of art and architecture from c.1300 to the present day and to
examine works as both aesthetic objects and historical documents. The course is unique in its
structure and design. The tutorials incorporate resources from the collection of the McMaster
Museum of Art and interviews with professionals working at galleries and museums across Ontario.

Technique videos that have been specially created for this course will help students to understand
how art works are made in a variety of media. Assignments will enable students to engage with their
local art communities and to relate those experiences to the content of the lectures, which will
present a global perspective on art and architecture.
