  • ART 105-106: Sculpture I

    4.00 Credits
    Bard College

    Through an exploration of materials, process, and site, this course addresses several ideas relevant to contemporary art. What is the relationship between form and content? When does the process of making become more important than the "object" produced? What is the relationshipof craft to art production? How and when does installation become just another material? How can one's body become both subject and site for a work of art? These ideas are explored through a series of projects and through readings, slides, and class discussion. Technical demonstrations include woodshop, mold making, casting, and welding.

    Drawing is the basis of visual intelligence. It enables us to envision and manipulate masses in space as light reveals them. This course examines perception, drawing from objects, the human figure, masterworks, and interior and exterior spaces. Students learn to critique each other's work orally and in written form. Some drawings are made collaboratively and some explore scale, as assignments include drawings that are both very small and mural-sized.

  • ART 201: Painting II:Painterly Print

    4.00 Credits
    Bard College

    A monotype (a.k.a. the painterly print) is essentially a printed painting. While it is technically the simplest form of printmaking, it is also the one that strives "to honor the individuality of the hand's painterly impulse." For this reason, themonotype is a wonderful tool for a painter to quickly develop ideas of color, light, shape, and composition that are both informative to the painting process and an end in themselves. Students explore the process of the monotype in relation to painting, using traditional and experimental techniques. Prerequisite: Painting I.

  • ART 202: Painting II

    4.00 Credits

Particular attention is given to understanding the various roles that color can play in creating structure and meaning in a painting. Self-motivation, extensive work outside of class, and a commitment to acquiring the necessary physical materials are required.
