Overview

At Essex, students will acquire a broad foundation in the history of visual culture, both by learning about canonical forms of art and architecture and by discovering what has been overlooked or marginalized, such as medical photography, tattoos or objects from political protests. They will also develop the skills they need to make exciting new connections between the forms of visual culture they study, developments in other disciplines, and broader social and political forces. On the four-year MArtH Version of this course (five years if taking a year abroad or placement year), students will gain solid knowledge of Art History and develop the key skills of the discipline during their first three years at Essex. In their final year, they’ll take MA-level modules, which will enable them to investigate more advanced topics, and write a draft journal article. They’ll cover a wide range of topics throughout the course including: Digital Media Curating Museums Heritage Latin American Art Contemporary Art Art and Human Rights The MA modules include: Critique and Curating Current Research in Art History Curating Latin American Art Curating Inside Out Heritage and Human Rights One of the major reasons for choosing Essex is the quality of the education students will receive. They are ranked 6th among art history departments in the UK for research excellence (REF 2014, mainstream universities, THE 2014). Students will be taught by the expert staff in their very first year, a rarity in the UK.
