SUNY College at Oneonta

Subject:

Description:

3 s.h. This course is an introduction to the dynamic field of Artists Books. This new artistic form has rapidly grown in popularity since the early 1980's. Through exploration of both traditional and innovative book structures and a broad spectrum of theoretical approaches, students will develop, design and produce a number of sculptural book objects with a strong conceptual base. Studio skills and aesthetic considerations brought to this class from drawing, design, photography, printmaking, sculpture, painting, ceramics, and computer art can all be utilized as students blend concept and form in the creation of unique Artists Books. While this is primarily a studio experience, slides and discussions of the scope of this new artistic field will be a complimentary component of the course. Offered at least once in an academic year. Prerequisite: ARTS 140 or ARTS 141 or ARTS 130. ( LA)
