His talents went widely unrecognized until after his death. Van Gogh was a brilliant artist with a tormented soul suffering from a mental illness.

Anna tearfully buried her son in the cemetery of the parsonage where the Van Goghs lived. A year later to the day, Anna would give birth to another son, whom she also named Vincent Willem van Gogh.

In all cases, requests for extensions require the submission of Special Consideration form no later than three University working days after the due date. Marked assessments submitted on time will be made available for collection by students at least one week before the next assessment in the unit is due if it is related to the previous assessment , or no more than four weeks after submission, whichever is sooner.

Monday, 7 September 6: Unit description This unit investigates some key works of art and design that exemplify the disciplinary concerns of art history from around the world.

Each week the unit discusses a different significant 'moment' in art. While these different moments are organised chronologically, they are not linked by a narrative discourse. Instead, each serves as a window onto various theories and practices of the art world. Students are introduced to the reasons why certain individual examples of art and design are significant to art historical discourse, to develop basic communication skills of art historical discourse, and to show students how to use basic art historical methodologies in the analysis of individual art and design works.

The unit addresses subjects from different cultures and periods. It covers a range of topical issues, including globalisation, relevant to the world we live in today. The outcomes and assessments are geared to basic generic literacy and research skills which prepare students for a range of disciplines. Learning outcomes Students are able to 1 know the basic historical and cultural contexts of some key examples of art and design; 2 undertake basic visual and analysis of the formal properties of art and design objects; 3 use a range of different texts to develop basic historical and critical interpretations of images; 4 acquire the protocols of basic research techniques used in art historiography such as some specialised critical vocabulary, different formats of reporting, essay writing and referencing; and 5 develop basic communication skills in interpersonal relations, oral discussion and essay writing on art and design works.
