This group started in January, 2015
Art History is the academic study of visual arts : paintings, sculpture, architecture, etc. although we tend to focus more on painting in AH2.
We decide on our two annual programmes for the following year in October/November and members take it in turn to research an artist in depth for each programme and give a 45-minute PowerPoint presentation of at least 24 slides (with notes in Microsoft Word to accompany them).
We also occasionally watch documentaries and films which have a connection to whichever topic we are studying and sometimes we visit a local exhibition in Portsmouth or Chichester.
In 2026 we will be studying Art in Georgian Britain (1740-1830) for our main programme and The Glasgow Boys during our autumn programme.
