I’m interested in applying to Sarah Lawrence. Does anyone know what the art history courses are like?
INCREDIBLE. Joe Forte is THE MAN. One of my best friends is taking his architecture class (See courses on Page 7: https://my.slc.edu/ICS/icsfs/2016-2017-course-catalogue.pdf?target=cd457550-6c04-4432-80c7-4940b6ad9a03) and she loves him. He has an awesome reputation and is just so… ugh he’s just GOD.
Like all other classes at SLC, when you take art history classes, you’re not just talking about art history, but the way it interacts with other “disciplines” (makeshift air-quotes because disciplines overlap very much here). Psychology, philosophy, history… everything is connected here, so by embracing complexity you get a very rich understanding of art history.
If that sounds like your thing, you’ll love it here.
