Building on the previously acquired knowledge of 156A, intermediate students will further develop their understanding and abilities to combine various media and techniques with the goal of creating two and three-dimensional works of art. Contemporary issues and approaches are explored through lecture and demonstration.
Focuses on the contemporary practice and conceptual basis of selecting and combining various media and techniques into two and three-dimensional works of art. Contemporary issues and approaches are explored through lecture and demonstration.
In the context of contemporary and traditional printmaking approaches, students develop aesthetic, critical, and creative thinking skills that expand upon photographic stencil and digital techniques introduced in ART 152A and 152B. Using various autographic,
photographic and digital stencil creation techniques and multiple-color printing with single and multiple screens for limited-edition and one-of-a-kind fine art prints.
Expanding upon the stenciling and photographic techniques introduced in ART 152A, this course covers various stencil creation techniques for exposure to photo-screens and ultimately multiple-color printing using single and multiple screens for limited-edition and one-of-a-kind fine art prints. In the context of contemporary and traditional printmaking approaches, students develop their aesthetic, critical, and creative thinking skills.
An introduction to screen printing processes through exploration of hand-cut stencils, directly drawn stencils and photographic techniques for limited-edition and one-of-a-kind fine art prints. In the context of contemporary and traditional printmaking approaches, students develop their aesthetic, critical, and creative thinking skills.
Expanding upon advanced techniques, working methods, and idea development practices, students produce a unified body of artwork for that can be applied towards transfer to university, art school or professional practice. Emphasis on creating self-directed artwork that connects working approach, style, and content with refinement of critical thinking, presentation, and technical skill.
This advanced intaglio and relief printmaking course expands upon intermediate plate making and printing techniques in support of innovative working styles and unique content that result in the creation of complex prints. The course emphasizes the layering of color and surface information using single and multiple plates.
This is an intermediate level intaglio and relief printmaking course which expands upon beginning level intaglio and relief plate making and printing techniques. As the second course of the Fine Arts Printmaking family, it is designed to strengthen problem solving skills while creating multi-layered, personal imagery that involves color. This course is part of the AA-T Studio Arts Major.
