Impossible to understand. Super boring lectures. The tests had nothing to do with what was on the review slides. Avoid this class at all costs.

gets mad at you for being on your phone in lecture even though most people take this class for a GE. TAs are unnecessarily hard graders and dont explain why they give you the grade you got. class covers too much material in just 10 weeks and you have to memorize useless info for the tests which youll probably forget within a day.

This professor was rather disappointing. The most difficult part of taking this course was keeping my eyes open during lecture. It is clear that the professor has a true passion for African and Indigenous art - that is about all that is clear in this class. The TA's are no better; apple doesn't fall far from the tree eh?

Lectures are extremely unorganized and he missed several classes in the quarter. It was very unclear what we would be tested on which made it difficult to study.

Lecture slides go from being just a single picture to having whole paragraphs. Makes you go to the useless lectures by taking random attendance. The course itself BARELY goes into depth because it attempts to cover 3(!) distinct cultures' art in 10 weeks. Final paper was the most vague and frustrating paper promt I have ever seen. Sometimes funny.

I would not recommend this class. His lectures are monotonous and tedious, and he almost never interacts with the class. As such, the lectures were not engaging at all. The mid-term didn't have enough questions to be fair; i.e., there was a 30 point mid-term on hundreds of pages, so not knowing one thing is enough to skewer you. Definitely avoid.
