This class explores artists, ideas, and processes of contemporary art through a variety of mixed media projects. I grade on effort. I would rather see you work hard and have something not work out as well as you would like, than you not put in much effort and meet meager goals. This class will be challenging and push you to think in ways you have not before about ideas which will be new to you. All you need to succeed in this class is effort and an open mind. Some of the ideas and readings we cover will be challenging, but I will always be available to discuss and offer help.
Projects:
The majority of your grades will come from the three projects that we do. Projects will be graded based upon three aspects:
1.Preparation (idea description in writing, studies, or research)
2.Execution of Project and Statement (material usage, and meeting deadlines)
3.Critique (participation in discussion of work)
Artist Presentation:
You will be given a list of artists from which you will choose one to make a brief report on to the class.
