The Cal Lutheran Experience

Art

Art history is really about the study of the history of visual ideas, or the study of creative thinking and visual strategy. I want students to think creatively and analytically, to engage themselves and their constituencies more deeply into whatever they are most absorbed in. Studying art history involves learning about history, government, architecture, religion and psychology, in addition to art. This kind of cross-disciplinary investigation adds value, grows imagination, and creates opportunity—personally, communally, professionally.

l’ve had the opportunity to do work that most undergraduates aren’t able to do, such as paleontology research and traveling to Colorado and Baltimore to present that research. I love that we have a lot to discover about how some of the most beautiful natural sights on Earth were made and why we should continue preserving them.
