Art 494 Advanced Sculpture I

A two-term sequence that continues an exploration of contemporary sculptural practices. Building upon the knowledge acquired in intermediate and introductory sculpture courses, there is an emphasis on conceptual development, research, and production as an advanced level sculpture student. Through readings, research projects and critiques, students will further develop the ability to discuss their own work as well as others both verbally and in writing. Art 494/594: Under closely guided assistance, students will begin the process of developing an independent, cohesive body of work within a historical and theoretical context. Art 495/595: Building upon the knowledge acquired in Art 494/594, students will complete a cohesive, independent body of work within a historical and theoretical context. Courses must be taken in sequence. Also offered for graduate-level credit as Art 594 and may be taken only once for credit.
