Historically, Paris has been a cosmopolitan center of the West, bringing artists together from around the globe to partake in an unprecedented cultural exchange. Students in this program devote themselves to experiencing the art and culture of Paris as they visit the masterpieces, museums, and architectural monuments of the French capital. The Paris: Art & Culture program addresses the contribution of French artists and architects to the western world.
Using the city's unparalleled cultural resources, participants consider how art has developed throughout its various periods. The classroom is the City of Light itself, with on-site lectures and discussions in such major museums as the Louvre, the Musée d'Orsay, and the Centre Georges Pompidou. Other key locations may include the Eiffel Tower, Notre Dame, and the Musée Picasso. Field trips often include such historic locations as Chartres, Versailles, and Giverny.
