Licenciatura en Artes - Historia del Arte

Trace the role that art plays across different eras and cultures. Through reading, analyzing images, critical thinking and experiential learning, you’ll learn to contextualize art and the ways it reflects the human experience over time.

The art and art history program recognizes the inherent expressive value of art, its enrichment of the human experience, and the dependence of global culture on visual literacy.

Studying art at Agnes Scott is a unique experience. As an art or art history major or minor, you’ll experience the ways that studio art and art history complement and inform one another. You’ll also distil concepts from many other fields of study—including history, literature, science, anthropology, and social justice. These interdisciplinary concepts will combine to inspire your creative process, whether in studio practice or art-historical scholarship. Not only will you develop technical understanding and hone analytical skills, but you will also learn to think critically, act creatively, and communicate articulately.
