Topic: Portraiture. This course will investigate both traditional and experimental approaches to portrait painting. Students will explore concepts, techniques, and histories related to portraiture through production and critique of artworks, as well as research and discussion. Students will gain an understanding of formal oil painting concepts, such as color, mark-making, and composition, and the way these visual components are used to create meaning within a work of art. Through in class and out of class assignments, students will be exposed to a brief history of the portrait, including how artists use portraiture to explore themes of identity and experience. Students will be asked to consider the various ways to represent their subject and to question what constitutes a portrait. Although the majority of class sessions will be spent working on studio assignments, occasional lectures and seminars are also scheduled. Students with little or no background in visual art are encouraged to participate along with those who have significant knowledge and experience.

Section Title:
Experiments in Painting
Section Info:
Topic: Experimental Materials in Painting. This course will focus on the use of alternative materials and experimental techniques in painting. Students will explore traditional art materials combined with modeled forms, reliefs, cut-outs, collaged elements, and found objects. We will discuss artists with a history of innovative and non-conventional approaches to art, including vernacular art by self-taught artists working outside of traditional art movements and genres. Popular culture will also be a sphere of inquiry, where we will discuss and explore such expressions as tattoos, sideshow banners, alters, religious ritual, and advertising. Other topics might include comix, graffiti, public murals and the use of distorted and grotesque figuration in painting. Through observation and examination of cultures, and the use of materials in new ways, we educate their eye and learn to make visual associations that yield content and encourage further investigation. For Chancellor's Scholars; others may enroll with the approval of the instructor and the Campus Honors Program.
Restriction(s):
Restricted to Chancellor's Scholar-CHPHonors students.
