Art history is, at its core, a branch of history, yet it also shares many of the concerns of literary studies in that it often focuses on the self-consciously creative manipulation of themes, symbols, and narrative. At the same time, the physical, material qualities of studio creation bring it close to the procedures in the physical sciences, where knowledge is formed through experimentation with physical materials.
