VIAR R3312 - Sculpture II: Mixed Media

Institution:

Columbia University in the City of New York

Subject:

Description:

This course will use the urban environment of New York City as its catalyst. The focus will be on the "undocumented architecture" surrounding us - construction barriers, traffic cones, construction machinery, scaffolding, building sites - and the temporary landscapes it creates. The aim of the course is to explore the relation between the creative process in art and the makeshift nature of seemingly orderly things, their precariousness and fragility. All media are welcome with emphasis on drawing, sculpture, installation, and photography. Field trips and films will also play an important role in this course.
