Art history
Impact Chair focuses on Indigenous art practices
Art has the power to both inspire and be a powerful catalyst for change, says inaugural Impact Chair in Indigenous Art Practices Carey Newman of UVic’s Faculty of Fine Arts.
A love of objects and a passion for art history
The Ring
What compels someone to study art history? It could be a passion for the life and work of a certain artist, like Frida Kahlo, or a fascination with a specific period of visual history, like the Renaissance. But for Josie Greenhill, graduating this month with a BA Honours in Art History and Visual Studies (AHVS), her inspiration came from a movie about Jack and Rose.
Curating achievement
The Ring
Some students start in Fine Arts, while others find their way here. Slide History in Art Honours student Regan Shrumm in the latter category. After starting in the English department, Shrumm found her way to the far side of the Ring Road when she signed up for an elective on Impressionism. She liked it so much she took other History in Art electives, and then simply decided to switch midway through her first year.
