Description

The Arts and Crafts movement was a utopian crusade that arose in reaction to the rational, materialist spirit of the Industrial Revolution and the Enlightenment.  It encouraged a reversion to age-old traditions of integrated working conditions, spiritual renewal, and reverence for nature.  We will examine the history of the movement while we also explore how its ideals are still relevant today.  Art projects, such as mosaics and printmaking, will be integrated to help us to understand and express program themes in an experiential way.  The main areas of focus will be art history and art.
