Hello everyone! My name is Sam Ringeling, a maths major from the Netherlands. I think almost all art forms and genres are incredibly cool and my favorite changes from day to day, however currently I'm very interested in sonic art and music!

Hi everyone! I've been teaching this course at AUC for the past four years, and I also teach in the art and culture department at the Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam (since 2014). I like teaching P&G because of the many connections that it reveals between time periods and cultures. My favorite art movement (if I had to choose) is Institutional Critique. Some interesting facts about me: I'm from California and studied my BA in San Diego, which is close to the border of Mexico. I completed my PhD dissertation last year on strategies used by artists in the Netherlands and Flanders in 1980s and 1990s to disrupt art world conventions. And I am on a lifelong quest to perfect the best banana bread and brownie recipes. Looking forward to getting to know you all over the semester.

Hey! My name is Jago and I'm a science major. I've always been interested in art but never thought about it seriously (although for several months I had my own small ceramics business in Poland). If I had to choose my favourite art movement/genre it would be New Figuration - don't ask me why, but most probably because of those vivid colours and deformations. However, I'd love to learn about non-western art. See you all soon!

Hi! I am Karolína. I am a Social Sciences major focusing on the environmental track. I am interested in studying art history because I really like creating art and also going to galleries and learning about the different meanings behind artworks. Maybe a bit of an unpopular opinion, but I think that any kind of conceptual art is super cool because it makes people think a lot! See you!

Hi, I’m Maria, I’m a humanities student. I'm mostly interested in literature and film, but art history seems like a great way to complement a humanities education. I did hl visual arts in IB, that’s pretty much my whole arts education so far. If I had to pick my favorite artist, it would probably be Barnett Newman; Abstract Expressionism in general excites me very much, but I'm always open to new experiences with art.

Hey everyone! I'm Jaime, and I'm a humanities student focusing mainly on literature. I come from a very non-artsy family so I've just recently become interested in art history, and my favourite artist I've encountered so far would probably be David Hockney :)

Hi! I'm Freddie. I'm a Sciences major and looking to focus more on Chemistry. I am not very artistic, but I do love to go to museums and thought this course would give me more insight and make the museum trips even more interesting. Probably not along the lines of what we are studying in this class, but my all time favorite artist is Banksy :)

Hi everyone my name is Bartolomeo I am first year, science major. I have always been interested in arts especially contemporary art. My favorite artist is Alighieri Boetti. Moreover, one of my favorite art movements is the Impressionism, as it clearly take a drastic way in how to do art. The beauty of the paintings is unique in that period. Finally I chose this course because I have always  been interested in studying the various art movements, and how the countries cultures played a role in the art.

Hey I'm Emma:) At the moment I'm a humanities major but I might change to Social sciences next year. Both my parents are historians who are very fond of art so I feel like I grew up in that kind of world. My favorite artist is Niki de Saint Phalle, I believe redefine the contemporary art scene. Through the playful way in which she discusses important issues.

Hey, my name is Sterre and I am writing this as I am on the train from Rotterdam where I just went to the museum de Kunsthal. This museum is a good example of what kind of art I am into: contemporary with a preference for spatial art. I was never really into art until I randomly decided to join one art lesson once in high school only because my friends were in that class. I never missed one art class ever since although I was not officially taking the art course. I am really looking forward to continuing to expand my art knowledge with this course. See you tomorrow!

Hi :) I'm Juliette. I'm a Humanities major. I would like to work in the art field later, and I am particularly sensitive to modern and contemporary art (more on the abstract side). I always lived surrounded by people from the art field (my father's a contemporary artist) and I had the chance to live a lot of incredible experiences thanks to them, but I do want to make my own path now. I would love to nourish my thoughts and knowledge and the art history course seemed like a must for me. I love connecting art to other fields like politics, history, science and see how much they evolve and impact each other. See you soon! :)

Hi I’m Marie! I’m a humanities major, mainly focusing on art and media. I’ve always been interested in art and I love going to museums! I had a bit of art history in high school and I took Periods and Genres Early as well. I really enjoyed it, so I am excited for this course. I don’t have a favorite art movement, but if I’d have to choose one it would probably be surrealism.

Hey guys! My name is Alice Owen and I am an exchange student from California (but go to university in Australia). I am a biology major so I am simply taking this course out of personal interest. I don't have much experience studying art other than the many museums I have visited. I think my favorite art movement is post-impressionism.

Hi everyone, I'm Camie. I'm a humanities major. My parents took me to museums from a very young age so my love for art was kind of spoonfed. Besides their beauty, I am especially interested in the social and cultural aspects of art pieces. I don't think I have a favourite art movement, maybe I'll find one in this course!

Elloo,
I’m Iris, a third-year social sciences major. I studied art history in High School and it has always been a great interest and passion of mine, so I am super excited to learn more about it and discover new perspectives during this course !

Hi! My name is Anne-Moon, I'm from the Netherlands and I'm a social sciences major. I'm mostly interested in anthropology, sociology, and sustainability. However, I took art history in high school and found it really interesting. I sadly forgot a big chunk of what I learned, but I'd love to refresh my knowledge and also learn many new things!! And I think my favourite art styles would be impressionism and post-impressionism, and I also love landscape-paintings in general.

Good morning,
I m Marie Perrot, from France. I'm a social major, business and economics track. I was born in Paris, great place for culture, arts and history and discovered a taste for art history. I took a few art history courses in high school and I miss it a lot.
My favorite movement is the 19th century impressionism and realism, that just convey so much emotions, a grasp of nature or human interactions.

I would like to discover art history outside of the movements I have always appreciated, in order to discover art as a whole.
