Interdisciplinary Arts 0340 - Advanced Drawing: Special Proj

This course will integrate advanced level drawing assignments with two student defined half semester long independent projects. Readings, slide talks, field trips to nearby drawing sites, and independent research will provide a context for the development of two cohesive bodies of independent work. Drawing as a visual practice will be defined broadly to allow for the exploration of forms and imagery across multiple genres, media and dimensions. Group critiques will provide a critical environment and offer a forum for the discussion of contemporary issues in drawing. Prerequisite: At least two drawing courses at the college level. Additional studio art and art history courses highly desirable.

Independent Work In this course, students are expected to spend at least five hours a week of preparation and production outside of class time. This time includes studio work, reading, and research.
