Description:

PQ: It is recommended that students who are majoring in visual arts enroll in this required course in Spring Quarter of their third year. Open to nonmajors with consent of Director of Undergraduate Studies. This seminar prepares students who are majoring in visual arts for their senior project. The project is an independent studio project or a combined studio/research project that students begin in the summer preceding their fourth year. Students engage in two main activities: (1) a series of studio projects challenging the imagination and enlarging formal skills; and (2) an introduction to the contemporary art world through selected readings, lectures, careful analysis of art objects/events, and critical writing. Studio skills are developed while contending with the central task of articulating ideas through a resistant medium. Visits to museums, galleries, and other cultural and commercial sites required, as is attendance at designated events. S. Wolniak. Spring.
