Develop a curriculum on the visual arts entitled "Beyond the Frame." This curriculum will include discussion modules on art history and development, means of approaching art and its criticism, the significance of various arts objects, and movements. The curriculum will explore the historical connections between religion and art, ways in which the religious debate over the power of images has influenced artistic forms (including the consideration of different views that Islam, Judaism, and Christianity have adopted toward image and art), and religious and philosophical views of beauty. We will use the curriculum at executive forums and disseminate through commercial publication.
