Humanities Arts Cultural Stu 0160 - Introduction to Studio Art Practices - The Generative Drift

Introduction to Studio Art Practices - The Generative Drift: In this drawing-centered course, we will be surveying and responding to a range of mediums, (im)material sources, and transcultural artists. Students will gain experience with new and alternative studio processes to create guided and self-directed projects. While we will approach the course from a drawing perspective, students may use mixed media, sound, performance, found materials, alongside traditional drawing mediums. Discussion of readings and lectures will be paired with experiential labs and critiques. This course is suitable for students at all levels of experience, from beginner to advanced.
