Introduction to the Program
Studying Art History will lead you to do impeccable work protecting and restoring ancient monuments”
Art History is a fascinating science that studies the evolution of the arts through time and space, focusing on certain specific periods. In fact, it is classified as a social science with a marked multidisciplinary character in which an objective examination is sought to establish the most relevant characteristics and styles in each period.
In collaboration with other specialties in this discipline, art history is now understood as a set of conceptual tools that help produce knowledge that goes far beyond a descriptive analysis of a work. Therefore, the work of an art historian focuses on theoretical formulation that are transformed into hypotheses for subsequent verification.
The complexity of this work makes it necessary for specialists to have a set of theoretical knowledge in the field, as well as certain research and interpretation skills to develop critical thinking in their line of work. For all these reasons, this Master's Degree has been designed to help those interested achieve their goals, providing them with the opportunity to participate in different projects such as the protection of monuments, the conservation of works of art or the dissemination of artistic heritage.
Counting on a completely online program, different aspects will be addressed, starting with understanding the origins of art history from the basic knowledge of anthropology and archaeology. Then, a distinction will be made according to the multiple periods of world history (prehistory, Middle Ages, Modern Age, etc.) and the key points that define each era.
Finally, the architecture and work of various Latin American artists will be analyzed, such as Frida Kahlo or José Clemente Orozco, who marked the modern era with their peculiar style. Therefore, students will immediately obtain their degree at the end of the program, allowing them to directly exercise all the knowledge acquired during the 12 months of the program.
