Prerequisites
Students must be in grade 10, 11, or 12 with prior AP course
experience or with the permission of the instructor.
Course Description
This course will provide a chronological survey of art from
prehistoric times to the post-modern era, based on an
understanding of the cultural and historical contexts of the
works. Although major emphasis will be placed on Western
art, study will also include art from cultures outside of the
Western tradition. The course will use guidelines from the
College Board’s AP Art History course description to prepare
the student for the AP Art History exam in May. This class will
involve significant reading and writing requirements. Families
should note that there is mature content in some of the works
addressed in the text.
