(no subject)
Well here it is Friday...finally. This week was very long, but the week after a holiday usually is long. I'm sitting here at work looking at all the stuff I should be doing and I just don't want to be here. Of course waking up at 2:30 and not being able to get back to sleep until 5:00 doesn't help my mood.
Last night I finally decide to look at classes for spring semester. Even though I don't want to take any classes, as I'm sick of school. Of course one of the online classes I was going to take is now full with 3 on the waitlist. I don't really want to go to campus for classes, I like online ones better. However, now I can't find 2 online classes to take. It's my own fault as I could've registered well over a month ago.
Anyone ever take Art History? If so, what period is more interesting...
This is one course I can take: Major works studied will include objects from China and Japan as well as art and architecture from ancient civilizations such as Egypt, Greece, and Rome. The major emphasis of the course will be on the roots of European artistic developments from ancient times through the Gothic period of Medieval Europe.
This is the other: Introduces the student to major artistic periods from the Renaissance to contemporary art by examining the function and role of the artist in various periods of history with an emphasis on the origins and developments of artistic styles such as High Renaissance, Baroque, Romanticism, Realism, and Cubism. The course will survey major works by artists such as Michelangelo, Jan van Eyck, David, Van Gogh, Picasso, Georgia O'Keeffe, and Frank Lloyd Wright.
I really know nothing about any of this stuff...so any suggestions would be appreciated.
Okay...off to work for me.
