3.00 Credits
Survey of technical methods involved in developing and printing of screen images on paper. Stencil building methods feature photo film (with photographic, xerox, and drawn imagery) but also include a range of hand-built methods (glue, resist, cut film, paper stencil, etc.).

3.00 Credits
A survey of technical methods involved in developing and printing zinc intaglio plates, including line etch, aquatint, drypoint, soft ground, lift ground, white ground, etc. Brief exploration of color methods in intaglio. Insights into the field of printmaking in general. Emphasis on continuing development of individual personal imagery in the context of intaglio printing. Evaluation based on a portfolio of work plus general energy and involvement. Prerequisites: Full Major status in BFA Studio Art OR "C-" or better in (ART 2201 AND ART 2202 AND ART 2203 AND ART 2204 AND ART 2205 AND ART 2206 AND ART 2207 AND ART 2208)

3.00 Credits
Using movable type, linoleum blocks, pressure print matrices, collagraphs, photoengraving, and photopolymer plates, students design and print several editions on hand-operated letterpresses. Through discussion and critique, students learn basic elements of design and typography with the option of integrating other printing processes into letterpress work. Typically, students participate in a class print exchange. The class also views letterpress work from the Marriott Library's Rare Books Collection. Prerequisites: Full Major status in BFA Studio Art OR "C-" or better in (ART 2201 AND ART 2202 AND ART 2203 AND ART 2204 AND ART 2205 AND ART 2206 AND ART 2207 AND ART 2208)

3.00 Credits
This course explores the basic elements of bookbinding, including structure, materials, tools, and techniques. Students construct a variety of book forms and enclosures, and complete creative final projects that integrate skills learned during the semester with original concept and design. Modern and historical structures from Eastern and Western traditions are considered within the context of the history of the book. In this introductory class, discussion, critique, readings, and lectures support hands-on learning. Prerequisites: Full Major status in BFA Studio Art OR "C-" or better in (ART 2201 AND ART 2202 AND ART 2203 AND ART 2204 AND ART 2205 AND ART 2206 AND ART 2207 AND ART 2208)

3.00 Credits
The course is an introduction to metal fabrication equipment, techniques, materials, and design. Studio works produced in the course will encounter concerns such as scale, structural integrity, and connections or fittings. Projects are designed to establish relationships between materials, structure and space. Oxyacetylene welding, cutting, brazing; operation of MIG, TIG, and stick welder and forge operations are covered. Curriculum includes techniques in basic mold-making. Sculptural works as well as competency tests are required. Prerequisites: Full Major status in BFA Studio Art OR "C-" or better in (ART 2201 AND ART 2202 AND ART 2203 AND ART 2204 AND ART 2205 AND ART 2206 AND ART 2207 AND ART 2208)
-
3.00 Credits
This course initiates questions of artistic intent and establishes conceptual premises in sculpture. Students develop basic research skills, draft proposals and statements, and begin to establish individual artistic vocabulary. It is expected that the students create studio works related to these investigations. Curriculum includes regular seminar discussions and presentations based on assigned readings, local lectures, and visiting researchers. Contemporary issues and ideas in sculpture are a primary focus of these discussions. Prerequisites: Full Major status in BFA Studio Art OR "C-" or better in (ART 2201 AND ART 2202 AND ART 2203 AND ART 2204 AND ART 2205 AND ART 2206 AND ART 2207 AND ART 2208)

3.00 Credits
This course explores the figure as a three-dimensional form. Students work directly from the model to gain knowledge of figure structure, gesture, scale, proportion, and composition, as well as to consider how the figure engages with space. A variety of sculpture processes are used to investigate the figure, including clay modeling, carving, mold making, and fabrication techniques. Contemporary ideas in figurative sculpture are explored through readings, lectures, and discussions. Prerequisites: Full Major status in BFA Studio Art OR "C-" or better in (ART 2201 AND ART 2202 AND ART 2203 AND ART 2204 AND ART 2205 AND ART 2206 AND ART 2207 AND ART 2208)

3.00 Credits
This is a sculpture class with wood at its center. We will investigate our relationship to material and to the social space that furniture controls and creates, as a departure into sculptural form. We investigate a variety of techniques and processes for reimagining the built world through research, discussion, and making. We explore advanced techniques in woodworking through a series of exercises and projects. Students will learn wood fabrication, joinery, lamination, and equipment safety. This is an integral part of the intermedia sculpture emphasis designed to support and further develop student work. Prerequisites: Full Major status in BFA Studio Art OR "C-" or better in (ART 2201 AND ART 2202 AND ART 2203 AND ART 2204 AND ART 2205 AND ART 2206 AND ART 2207 AND ART 2208)
