LCOM 128

Description:

Students earn 6 credit hours (3 for ARTH 182, Art History: Renaissance/Modern, and 3 for ITMD 231, History of Furniture & Ornamentation/Renaissance-20th Century). NOTE: This learning community will meet on campus on Tuesdays and the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art on Thursdays. In a traditional curriculum the history of the visual arts and architecture and the history of furniture and ornamentation are taught separately. In this learning community the two courses will be thoroughly integrated, thus providing students with a more accurate and meaningful way to learn. The class will meet once a week on the JCCC campus and once a week at the Nelson-Atkins Museum of Art in Kansas City, MO. Students, therefore will have the unique opportunity to study paintings, sculpture, furniture and the decorative arts from the Renaissance to the present using historically significant objects and art works. The class will involve such activities as oral presentations about art works in the museum and researching and writing about furniture and ornamentation. Students should have reliable transportation for the weekly drive to the Nelson-Atkins and should NOT enroll in an 11 a.m.-12:15 p.m. class.
