Students will review a variety of online art museums and multimedia websites on architecture, design, drawing, painting, photography, sculpture, video and news media. This review will be conducted via a series of lectures, visits to assigned websites, class discussions of articles and portions of current books, and short, directed research projects. Some of the cultural, ethical and philosophical issues raised by the proliferation of images on the Web will be addressed as students learn to critique the content of websites, the quality of images, and the technology used to present images.
