Description:

HU W.Williams Students are encouraged to develop an individual approach to photography. Emphasis is placed on their creation of black and white photographic prints, which express plastic form, emotions, and ideas about the physical world in chemical and in digital formats.

Study of the photography collection, gallery and museum exhibitions, lectures, a critical and theoretical analysis of photographs from the permanent collection and a research project supplement the weekly critiques. In addition students produce a handmade archival box to house their work, which is organized into a loose sequence and mounted to archival standards. Prerequisite: Fine Arts 103 or equivalent.
