On Monday, October 17^th, students in AP Art History visited the Museum of Modern Art (MOMA) in New York City as part of their ongoing research of modern art.

The purpose of the trip was to investigate, study, and view works from van Gogh, Picasso, Duchamp, Matisse, and Cezanne. Students were required to complete a firsthand analysis of works previously covered in class and were expected to document their understandings of selected artworks.

Taught by Ms. Cathleen Carroll, AP Art History covers the global canon of art from Prehistoric to Contemporary. Students are expected to have a comprehensive understanding of 250 required works for the AP Art History Exam, administered in the spring. The course at CBA includes at least one visit to a major New York or Philadelphia museum each semester.
