2019 course options for Art History are now up! Despite the bumps on the road over the last few months, we're offering a full range of courses from 100 to 400 level and beyond #arthistory #studyarthistory

We're lucky enough to have the @adamartgallery on the department's doorstep, giving students an opportunity to engage with artworks in the gallery environment. This week's 'Topics in Contemporary Photography' students had the opportunity to consider Ngahuia Harrison's evocative 'Ngā Paepae Tapu' in relation the colonial gaze and landscape photography traditions @ngahuiaharrison #artispowerful #arthistoryisimportant

We're at Victoria University Open Day today, if you're considering studying Art History, or are interested in the Adam Art Gallery, come and have a chat! @adamartgallery #arthistory #art

'The relationships between art and identity-making are particularly charged in countries with histories of contact, suppression, and adaption like our own.... There is much work being done and to be done in identifying the many gaps and silences in the narratives we have been told; and in forging new pathways forward.' Head to the profile page to read current Art History student Hanahiva Rose's profile, in which she makes a powerful case for the cultural and political value of Art History. Thanks Hanahiva! #supportvuwah #arthistory
