Simply put, he is the best. As a professor, yes--he is exceptional in every regard as an educator, not only incredibly knowledgeable but also a dynamic, engaging, captivating speaker and lecturer. As a human being--he recognizes talent and is generous in his appreciation. He is as good a listener as he is a speaker. He is approachable and friendly, and never before have I met a professor with whom I genuinely enjoyed talking to, and with whom it was so easy and natural. He combines philosophy, politics, and theory with art in a way that is astounding. For the love of god, do yourself a favor and take a course with him, I promise you won't be disappointed.

How has no one written about this professor yet? He is, first of all, the highest paid professor in the art history department, considering well.. he's written scholarly texts and is a renowned professor. He is not easy. And it can be a good or a bad thing. Good thing - he knows his stuff. Too well. Just like most of the art history professors. At times, I thought he'd make up words but no.. intense vocabulary. And he'll throw in some German and French just to spice the lecture up. Bad if you are going to slack off on the paper. He's the toughest grader I've had, because he can really see right through the bull and the slacking. I highly recommend him because its really rare to get such a great professor, even if he is a tough grader. I felt he really challenged students intellectually.
