Humanities Arts Cultural Stu 0220 - Thinking is Form: Intermediate Drawing

Thinking is Form will offer students concepts to evolve their drawing practice while addressing the complexity of graphical representation. Parallel to the exploration of the role of drawing in contemporary art, we will establish drawing/studio projects, studio practice, class discussions, and critiques. Assignments will address drawing from objects, the human figure, space, and imagination. Students will investigate traditional and unconventional resources, large scale, small scale, - and incorporeal working strategies. The course is designed for students with limited previous experience in drawing, but flexible enough to challenge Division II studio-art concentrators. Keywords: drawing, studio art, critical art theory

Lab fee: $60. Students in this course can expect to spend approximately 8 hours weekly on work and preparation outside of class time.
