4.00 Credits
(4.0 Units) (No prerequisite. Three lecture and three laboratory hours weekly.) This course explores the vast possibilities for dyeing and printing cloth to achieve richly patterned surfaces for apparel, interiors, theater, performance or artistic/conceptual intentions. A variety of fabric manipulations and coloring methods are investigated to develop design composition, repeat patterning, and personally expressive imagery for two- and three-dimensional fabric applications. Techniques include immersion-dyeing, shibori, color removal, painting, paste resist, block printing, burn-out, ink-jet and screen printing. Historical and contemporary examples are examined for technical information, inspiration and personal interpretation. Studio work will be enhanced through slide presentations, field trips, guest artists, individual consultations and group critiques. May be taken four times for credit. (CSU)
-
4.00 Credits
(4.0 Units) (No prerequisite. Three lecture and three laboratory hours weekly.) Construction processes involved with interworking of flexible elements by such techniques as layering, bonding, plaiting, stitching, and weaving, in a scale that may range from personal object to installation. May be taken four times for credit. (CSU) CSU Area C-1
-
4.00 Credits
(4.0 Units) (No prerequisite. Advisory: Art 165. Three lecture and three laboratory hours weekly.) Open to students from all art disciplines including textiles, who seek to integrate construction with sculpture, painting, and crafts, etc. An exploration of flexible, fragile, or fibrous materials such as cloth, paper, plastic, reed, wire, and threads.

4.00 Credits
(4.0 Units) (No prerequisite. Three lecture and three laboratory hours weekly.) A basic general ceramics course for those who want to survey various techniques of wheel throwing and hand building methods, and to become familiar with ceramic glaze materials and kiln firing. It is expected that students will develop an awareness of ceramic design and explore individual solutions to specific technical and conceptual assignments. (CSU/UC) CSU Area C-1, CAN ART 6
-
4.00 Credits
(4.0 Units) (Prerequisite: Art 170. Advisory: Art 112 or concurrent enrollment. Three lecture and three laboratory hours weekly.) A second semester beginning ceramics course for those who wish to continue developing the basic techniques of wheel throwing and slab building methods with an emphasis on increasingly advanced projects. Direct participation in glaze preparation and kiln firing. It is expected that students will produce work reflecting an intermediate understanding of ceramic design and explore individual project resolutions through drawings and group discussion. Art 171 is a continuation of Art 170. (CSU/UC)
-
4.00 Credits
(4.0 Units) (No prerequisite. Three lecture and three laboratory hours weekly.) A working, historical overview of forming and firing methods that have been the basis of the African, Asian, American Indian, and Pre-Columbian cultures. Locating clay deposits, preparation of clay and colors, forming and burnishing techniques, pit firing, and Raku. May be taken four times for credit. (CSU/UC)
-
4.00 Credits
(4.0 Units) (No prerequisite. Advisories: Art 112 or 113; and 130. Three lecture and three laboratory hours weekly.) This course will concentrate on the use of the potter's wheel in the creation of functional and sculptural ceramic objects. Techniques of wheel throwing and trimming cups, bowls, vases, pitchers, lidded forms, closed forms, tea-pots and plates will be demonstrated as well as handle making. Students will be required to use basic design and drawing skills in the development of their assignments. Emphasis will be on refinement of technique rather than quantity. Covers stoneware glaze development, kiln loading, stoneware and soda firing. Development of post wheelthrown projects will be demonstrated and encouraged. May be taken four times for credit. (CSU/UC)
