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.
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.
There’s nothing like the winter holidays for doing quizzes, and this year the Department of History in Art has created their own Christmas Quiz for your enjoyment. Sorry, it’s not
a compilation of famous Santas or name-the-actor-playing Scrooge, but something far more ambitious and department-appropriate.
