Advanced Projects in Visual Art

3 Credits.

In this advanced studio course students develop a body of work on a research topic of their choice. Focus will be placed on advancing their technical skills while strengthening their understanding of contemporary art, critical theory, and creating a body of work for exhibition. To enhance the student’s understanding of artistic practice and developing an advanced project, approximately one third of the class periods are off site visiting Baltimore based artist studios, galleries and museums. This class is open to all studio and digital photography students who want to engage with other serious art students and advance their art practice and research. This course can not be taken simultaneously with Advanced Fiber Structures or The Photographic Portfolio. The completion of three or more of the listed prerequisite courses is required to enroll in this course. Students are required to schedule a meeting with the professor before final approval into the class can be granted.
