LUNCHTIME LECTURES. This lecture series is intended to provide knowledge of art-related careers. Even if you do not go on to study art, the exposure to careers that combine art WITH other fields of study should be enlightening as you consider the possibilities for your future. This is a mandatory part of the studio art curriculum but an extra credit opportunity for you!
Requirements: 1) Attendance at the lecture; 2) A typed report (1 - 2 pages), which incorporates both factual information about the lecture itself and reflective thoughts that express your ability to make meaning of the experience; 3) Submission of the report no later than the Friday after the lecture.

HOMEWORK:

- Chapters 18, 20, and 21 cover Late Gothic/Proto-Renaissance and Early, High, Late Renaissance through Mannerism. While the content will be abridged for the sake of time, reading through the chapters will give you an overview (or review) of the time period and the context in which art was being produced.
- READ THIS. Then flip through chapters 24, 25, 26, 27, 28, 29. Combine these two exercises to set the stage to understand the goal for the remainder of the year: "Use the foundation that has been (will continue to be) set re: universal themes in the production of art and architecture as a way to connect to other cultures and to contemporary times." That's a tall order...additional details will be forthcoming but, to start, use the content provided in these chapters and the "Think About It" and "Crosscurrents" questions to find what piques your interest and to help guide you to what will be your Semester 2 project topic.
