Marian University Department of Art and Design The Program of Art and Design at Marian University is committed to educating students about the p Do you have a love for art and the history behind it?

Want to learn about ways to use your creativity and create your own masterpieces? Do you want to help others through the power of art? The Marian University Department of Visual Arts has many interesting and exciting areas of study, many of which may be right for you. Through the ages, important thinkers have maintained that visuals and vision are potent forces. Zhang Yan Yuan of China, the world'

s first art historian, stated that art helps human relations by allowing us to explore mysteries of the universe. Art, he wrote, completes culture. Years later, St. Thomas of Aquinas asserted that looking upon an object has powerful effects on the viewer’s mind and body. At Marian University, visual arts majors study the many ways art has been and continues to be used as a powerful tool to shape our minds and our culture. Students are taught to see reality, design possibility, and inspire a new reality out of that possibility.
