AP Art History

The Advanced Placement Program in the Art History is designed to provide the same benefits to secondary students as are provided by an introductory college course: an understanding and enjoyment of architecture, sculpture, painting, and other art forms within a historical and cultural context. In this course students learn to look at works of art with intelligence and sensitivity, examining the major forms of artistic expression of the past and of distant cultures as well as those of our own time and environment, in preparation for the Advanced placement test.
