In the 20th century art history developed greatly as an academic discipline, partly due to the seminal contributions of a number of outstanding scholars who gained wide renown and acknowledgment, even outside the field of art history itself.
During this course we will read and evaluate art historical texts by a number of prominent art historians.
At the start of the course, the programme will not be completely fixed, leaving the possibility for students to propose seminal texts themselves.
The entrance requirements for Exchange Students will be checked by the International Office and the Programme coordinator. Acceptance is not self-evident.
