Professor William Hood presents Religious Art for the Irreligious Art-Lover, a reflection on his several decades teaching art with religious content at Oberlin College. William Hood taught art history at Oberlin College from 1974 through 2007, where he held the endowed Mildred C. Jay professorship in art history. He is currently teaching art history seminars at the New York University’s Institute of Fine Arts, where he did his doctoral studies. His research interests center around Italian Renaissance art, as well as the art of 17th and 18th century France, Italy, and Spain. He has published on a variety of subjects in Renaissance and Baroque art. His most famous publication is the award-winning Fra Angelico at San Marco.
