ARTV 210 - Language of the Traditional Arts


An introduction to the theoretical principles and practical aspects of the traditional arts of Egypt, with especial emphasis on the Coptic and Islamic traditions in Cairo. Students will learn the principles of color, form, and iconography, and will gain practical knowledge through field trips and in-class assignments. Although drawing and painting exercises are central to the course, no prior experience is necessary. The ultimate goal of this course is to convey, through study and practice, the vibrancy of these Cairo traditions.
