In this course students develop their written and oral expression in French at the intermediate level through the study of existing works of art and creative and performance activities, such as drama, music, dance, painting, drawing, sculpture, architecture, photography, or comic strips by French-speaking authors and artists. Students will become familiar with the expressive and performing dimensions of forms of applied arts such as fashion design, interior design and decorative art, as well as public art such as museums, murals, digital media, carnivals, festivals, etc. The art forms are discussed in relation to their cultural contexts. This course provides continued reading and listening practice and reflection on and appreciation of various art forms.
