Timeline of Art History
Penguin April 18th, 2008
I was talking to Ninja the other day about Barney and video art. It got me thinking about art history in general. The way that I’ve understood art, is that it’s often times a reaction or response to a particular climate, movement, or idea. Key to this, is understanding art history. I was hoping that if I could trace where art has come, I can use that knowledge and apply it to film.
Luckily, the Metropolitan Museum of Art has a timeline of art history! The site offers maps, essays, timelines, works of art organized by geography or time period.
It looks like an amazing resource.
