ONEONTA, N.Y. -- The SUNY College at Oneonta will offer a summer
travel course in 2009 entitled "Greek Art in Context." The course will be
taught by Associate Professor of
Art
Thomas Sakoulas, a native of
Greece whose work in stone is inspired by ancient Greek art.
The course, which will take place from June 4 to June 12, is open to
members of the community on a credit or non-credit basis. The deadline for
registration is February 26.
During the nine-day tour of Greece, participants will explore some of the
finest art in the world and experience first-hand the different styles,
eras, and techniques of Greek art and architecture from the Bronze Age to
the Hellenistic Era. The group will visit the most important archaeological
sites and museums of Greece including the citadel of Mycenae, the Acropolis
of Athens, the Oracle of Delphi, and the sacred sanctuaries at Olympia and
Epidaurus.
