22-2251 Contemporary Issues in Sculpture

Course introduces material, techniques, and conceptual methods to develop students’ art-making practices. Contemporary sculpture is increasingly diversified, including object-making and other spatial art forms. Artists as visual communicators use many approaches and attitudes to articulate and disseminate ideas. Exercises, projects, and collaborative class work lead through concept development, choice-making, execution, presentation, and critique. Students will consider their own role regarding contemporary issues of audience, artistic attitude, desired mission, and social awareness as they develop their studio practice.
