The AP Art History is equivalent to a two-trimester introductory college course that explores the nature of art, art making, and responses to art. By investigating 250 works of art characterized by diverse artistic traditions and culture from prehistory to the present, the course cultivates an in-depth, holistic understanding of the history of art from a global perspective. Students become active participants in the global art world, engaging with its forms, functions, context and content.
