Our BA Art History program equips you with essential skills including analytical reasoning, academic writing, historical investigation, and visual interpretation. You'll examine artworks, architectural structures, and exhibitions within their cultural and political frameworks while considering the broader societal impact of visual media. The curriculum creatively utilizes London's galleries, museums, and other resources, featuring an engaging international study trip each spring.
We approach art history as a vibrant discipline that includes architecture, installations, exhibitions, printed materials, digital media, along with traditional forms like painting, sculpture, and photography. Your instructors are both accomplished educators and published scholars producing innovative research spanning medieval to modern periods.
