1 hour Students propose a self-directed project to either create a body of artwork for exhibition or to conduct research on an art-related topic for presentation. All students are required to exhibit work publicly. Student proposals outline one of two options, which are submitted to the faculty for approval. Option A: a combined Senior Project and Senior Exhibition will consist of the preparation of a significant body of new work for exhibition in a solo or collaborative exhibition around a carefully chosen theme. Installing the exhibition, including an artist's statement, is part of the project, as is fully documenting the installed show with quality photographic images of the individual pieces and of the exhibit in its entirety. Option B: a Senior Exhibition and a Senior Project that are separate in form and content. Projects consist of researching a significant art-related topic and preparing an appropriate presentation of the results of the research. In addition to presenting project results, students selecting Option B are also required to exhibit art work they have created (new work strongly encouraged), generally in a joint or group show that may be less extensive than the combined project/exhibition of Option A. Prerequisite: senior status or consent of instructor.
