ART2110 ST: Sculpture I

Sculpture I introduces fundamental issues in sculpture such as site, context, process, psychology and aesthetics of the object, and the objects relation to the body. During the semester, students begin to explore issues of interpretation and audience interaction as well as introductions to a variety of materials and techniques both traditional (wood, metal, plaster) and non-traditional (fabric, latex, found objects, rubber, etc.) will be emphasized. Throughout the semester both individually, and as a class, through work produced and discussions generated from it, the meaning of such terms as ‘sculpture’, ‘process’, ‘utility’, ‘space’, ‘material’, ‘structure’, ‘ephemeral’, ‘permanent’ and others will be examined and re-defined. In addition to the studio/project-oriented class, this class will be examining these issues via readings, artist lectures, slides, videos, field trips, and other material. Lab fee / materials fee applied to this course. Credits: 3.000
