Paul Cézanne and the Art of Seeing

Paul Cézanne broke from artistic tradition with a radically new way of seeing, turning ordinary objects into subjects of wonder. While his peers pursued fleeting impressions, Cézanne emphasized solid forms, broad color planes, and shifting viewpoints, setting him apart from the Impressionists. Even as his work moved toward abstraction, he stayed rooted in the real. Art historian Aneta Georgievska-Shine explores his groundbreaking vision. (World Art History Certificate elective, 1 credit)
