Experiencing The Life Of Italy


This abroad program is has the first art history course I've ever done. I’m interested in learning about this subject that is so foreign to me. I hope this trip teaches me the history of architecture and certain European sculpture. I am most interested in learning different stories of the Italian gods. So far, I’ve learned a little about the Duomo and Santa Croce. While reading Gardener’s Art through the Ages I read that most viewers try to relate to the different sculptures, artwork, and architecture. Then judge the different arts by its success or failure. I hope to be able to look at all different works and find how I may relate to the certain objects. It also states that most artists were inspired to create sculptures, paintings, and other objects by other patrons. Nevertheless, many objects were made to be presents. Consequently, many artists today have been influenced and let out their emotions through other art, such as, dance and fashion. In conclusion I hope to make this experience unforgettable and meet people that I’ll always remember.
