This course explores the diverse arts of Asia from its origins until the present day. Commencing with India before moving on to examine works from China, Korea, Japan and the Middle East, the course will include analysis of Asian art and its increasingly important position in the global art market. The final week focuses on the turbulent but exciting period after 1900 and culminates with contemporary art, enabling students to develop a better understanding of the region’s key contemporary artists. Visits to leading museums and galleries complement the classroom-based lectures.
