Summary

Provides an introductory, straight-forward, and response-oriented overview of the arts.

Perceiving the Arts presents the basic formal, technical, experiential, and contextual qualities of the arts in a brief, clear, and factual manner. Students will develop confidence in approaching the arts and will gain skills that encourage life-long artistic and cultural engagement. Intended to provide a basic overview of the major artistic disciplines—drawing, painting, printmaking, photography, sculpture, architecture, music, theatre, cinema, dance, and literature—the book teaches listeners what to look and listen for in the humanities.

MyArtsLab is an integral part of the Sporre program. Engaging activities and assessment are part of a teaching and learning system that helps students gain a broader understanding of arts and cultures. With MyArtsLab, students can explore in-depth analyses of relevant artwork, architecture, artistic techniques, and more.
