Anybody seen the Andy Warhol exhibit at SFMoMA? What did you learn about us from the exhibit? Art History as a subject emerges in ancient times and comes into prominence in the Renaissance and Enlightenment. It can tell us a lot about the societies in which the work was created. We will talk about modern examples of works art historians analyze to discover social, economic, scientific, theoretical, and gender issues, among others, in different societal contexts. Think Andy Warhol!
