FA 2260J Represent & Illusion in Art

This course examines how the system of linear perspective, first developed during the Renaissance, is in actuality a culturally-bound way of seeing and representing reality. Through drawing exercises, oral presentations and writing assignments, linear perspective is contrasted with traditional Chinese methods for creating a convincing illusion of three-dimensional space.
