Title: Art and Art History
Location: US
Company: Education
The Art and Art History Department offers majors and minors in art history and studio art. Artmaking involves examining, transforming, and communicating individual and collective human experiences into visual form. Art history studies the tangible documentation of culture, and it provides a window into the history and philosophy of many societies, past and present.
All of our students learn through both observation and hands-on practice. For example, in a sculpture course, you may learn about the history of cast bronze and work with your classmates to create your own sculptures in our bronze foundry. In art history courses, such as Race, Ethnicity, Class, and Gender in American Art, you’ll examine visual culture through the intersectional contexts in which it is created, honing your skills for written analysis.
Our faculty and staff are working artists and scholars, contributing actively to the local, national, and international arts communities. Your Macalester degree in Studio Art or Art History will prepare you for graduate study in art or art history, and it will form the basis for a professional career in the arts. For non-majors, you will gain a foundation for a lifetime appreciation of the arts in their varied contexts. Each spring, art history majors present public lectures of their original capstone research projects while the studio art capstones consist of an exhibition of original artwork in the Law Warschaw Gallery.
