SEM 1116: The Dynamics of Color
3.00 Credits
Hollins University
White Color is one of the most elusive and expressive of qualities for the painter, and understanding how we perceive it and how to shape form by using it is what we will explore in this studio class. We will work from observation, like impressionist painters and work abstractly in an inventive and formalist way to create strong compositions using the dynamics of color. We will work in oil paint on a variety of supports, on small to large formats. Lab fee is required, which may be variable for consumed supplies. Prerequisite: ART 100 required; and ART 230 is suggested.

SEM 1118: The Poets' Theater Anderson
3.00 Credits
Hollins University
First established in Cambridge, Mass., in 1950, the original Poet's Theatre staged plays composed by significant poets like Frank O'Hara, William Carlos Williams, John Ashbery, and Samuel Beckett. Their work sought to incorporate theatrical space as a medium for poetic composition. This course examines the early history of The Poet's Theatre and its role as a vehicle for avant-garde poetics. Seminar participants will develop and perform a series of original work that seeks to retain poetry's focus on language and structure, while at the same time abandoning the traditional elements of narrative or staging often associated with conventional theater.

SEM 1120: Art Criticism
3.00 Credits
Hollins University
Epstein Who are art critics? How do their judgments shape trends in the visual arts? This course is an introduction to the history and practice of art criticism. We will consider the development of the discipline from Benvenuto Cellini to Rosalind Krauss, examining how each critic attempts to persuade us of his or her views. Examples of recent art criticism in art journals, daily newspapers, and magazines will receive particularly close attention. Students will write and peer edit reviews of contemporary exhibitions based on field trips to local galleries and museums. We will also consider art in progress at Hollins. Other topics to be explored are the interplay between art criticism and curatorial practice, the role of Art Blogs in the contemporary art world, and the impact of art criticism on perceptions of art in the mainstream media. Costs: incidental expenses-field trips and gallery admission.
