SOAC 300 Junior Projects/Discourse I

College of Art, Media & Design

3 credits 90.0 hours
300 level undergraduate course

Junior Projects/Discourse I is proposed as a concept driven, studio/criticism course, addressing crossover issues within the unique domains of the disciplines in the School of Art. Through engagement with broadly relevant critical issues, students will cultivate an awareness of the common strategies present in the dynamics of individual studio practice. Emphasis is placed on the significant role that philosophy, art history and cultural studies play in the formation of contemporary idioms, and their subsequent influence on individual creative practice. Assignments combine studio practice with research and writing, readings, trips to galleries, studios and museums, lectures by visiting artists and critiques.

Prerequisites Complete 1 course from within the College of Art, Media & Design.
