ART* 107 Introduction to Studio Art

Credits: 3

This is a studio and lecture course designed to develop seeing and understanding of the formal and cultural aspects of the visual arts. The course includes studio assignments and work with a variety of materials, art log entries, discussions of studio work and lecture/discussions of selected works and artists. As this is an introductory course, it is assumed that most students have little or no previous experience in art. This is in no way a disadvantage as the assignments have been carefully chosen to suit the course aims and provide an interesting and creative introduction to the visual arts.
