Contemporary Art StudioStudents investigate contemporary movements and concepts including happenings, installation, performance, new figuration, and postmodern aesthetics in studio projects that reflect knowledge and insights gained from a series of panel discussions led by college faculty, critics, and visiting artists.
Class
Experimental DrawingThe focus is on an individually oriented pursuit of drawing. The sense of artistic discovery is enhanced by the development of a series of drawings in which sources in contemporary art history, along with an awareness of selected materials and media, are combined with a more conceptual, creative process. Extreme departures in scale, surface tool, and medium are investigated.
Class
InstallationThis course traces the origins of installation art as early as 1923 when El Lissitzky created sculptures that occupied the corners of his “Proun Rooms”. In this advanced level studio course, students investigate contemporary and other historical artists who work in this genre. Students work on and off-campus to create their own installation-based works.
