VCHAT1012 Visual Culture: Foundations and Traditions
This course builds on the knowledge and skills developed in VCHAT1011.

Selected topics may include the Renaissance and the Baroque, Realism, Romanticism and Impressionism. Students will further develop the critical, analytical and research skills introduced in VCHAT1011.
