The course Art Appreciation: Materials and Media explains and helps understand what one is looking at, its value and how to interact with art when potentially buying it and enjoying it in a museum or gallery.

Additionally, when responsible for managing art while working for an art collector, understanding the media that one works with is vital for it to be adequately looked after and handled.

Therefore, the purpose of this course is to provide deeper insight and enjoyment of the art one interacts with to respond to it with knowledge of the medium and its range.
