THE FACULTY OF THE DEPARTMENT OF ART HISTORY STUDIES ART AND VISUAL CULTURE IN THEIR MANY GUISES.

Our methods are nearly as wide-ranging and diverse as our objects of study, yet we share a horizontal approach to scholarship. We are alert to the ways in which artworks and other artifacts are tied to near and distant cultures and locations by relations of exchange, encounter, coalition, competition, domination, performance, religion, ritual or resistance.
