Arts of Italy is an intensive studio course that takes place in central and northern Italy in Fall 2024.

In this class we will explore Italian art and culture focusing on the arts and architecture in Florence, Tuscany, and Venice. We will discover the art and architecture from ancient through early modernity to contemporary. Through critical issues and contemporary art practice students will engage in visual exploration and creative problem solving through a variety of media, tools, and techniques.

Readings, presentations, and studio–based projects reflect on visits to sites, exhibitions, museums, and galleries. Students at all levels are welcome.

Contact professors of Art Cara Jaye or Sasha Petrenko to learn about how to apply, what to expect, activities, and destinations.
