AP Art History

Advanced Placement Art History is a year-long survey course that provides students with an understanding of architecture, sculpture, painting, and other forms of art within historical and cultural context. This course is intended for highly-motivated students who possess strong reading and writing skills as well as a mature work ethic. Students examine major forms of artistic expression from the past and present and from a variety of cultures, and learn to look at works of art critically to analyze what is seen. Many colleges and universities offer credit to students who have performed successfully on the AP History of Art Examination. A “C” or better in both semesters earns the student a unit for the “F” requirement on the UC/CSU A-G list.
