Although Art is an expression that transcends religion, culture, country, people and time, the studying of Art History is crucial to understanding Art, art movements, and culture in general. The enduring value of the past is, after all, the very basis of civilization, and to know the past certainly helps us understand the present. Who better than Anne Connor may help you navigate the stormy seas of Art History? Mrs. Connor has been teaching art history for over 20 years. She holds a Master's degree in Art History and is a former ASU professor.
