AAH 423 - Nature and Art

Prerequisites: AAH 121 -AAH 122  
Fulfills a course requirement in the Art and Architectural History Core Concentration.
An interdisciplinary seminar where students will have the opportunity to investigate and question how nature, through our perception of it, becomes a cultural construct. The concepts of Natural History, Landscape, Body Perception, Biophilia and Environmental Ethics are some of the core issues that will be discussed in this seminar. Various aspects of the natural world will be analyzed in relation to how artists or trends, from different cultures and time periods, have been used and inspired by them and how we might still continue to do so today.
