The course is aimed at students of the Bachelor's Degree and wants to provide the methodological tools and the basic knowledge for the study of the history of art in Italy from the beginning of the XIV to the end of the XVIII century. Through a chronological path we intend to provide the lines of development of sculpture painting and architecture in Italy between the eighteenth and eighteenth centuries. The objective is first of all the acquisition by the student of the ability to orientate stylistically and critically between the very important junctions of the history of modern art of the time. At the end of the course the student will also be able to deal with the stylistic and technical analysis of a work and to understand what information can be drawn from the work itself regarding its placement or entry into a museum, its critical history and to its iconography.
teacher profile teaching materials
The knowledge of art and artistic movements in Italy from early Renaissance to Neoclassicism is the aim of the course. This goal can be achieved analyzing the style of the works of art and their history, patronage, meaning in the society in which they were born. Therefore a visive knowledge of paintings and sculptures is strictly requested.
The course will begin with some general lectures about artistic movements and different approaches to history of art. Students are kindly requested to have taken History of Medieval Art exam before attending the course.
Studying the manual is just the first step of preparing for the exam. The knowledge of the complete work of the most important artists is also requested and therefore students can be helped to get in touch with the whole ouvre of artists by the website (I suggest www.wga.hu). Maestri del Colore or Classici dell’arte Rizzoli can be useful as well. During the course some subjects will be developed therefore students are kindly requested to get the power points or recorded lessons which could be found on Teams / Team "Storia dell'Arte Moderna" / Materiali / Chat.
