Expanding Drawing Between Head and Hand

(4 Credits)

This course introduces drawing, the articulation of space and objects with a dual emphasis on "observational study and alternative interpretations, uses and functions of drawing. Some of the "alternative modes of drawing students will explore are, and drawing with ideas, drawing with " the body, with text, with a stylus, with equations that can be plotted or drawn beyond both the "frame of a sheet of paper and the physical reach of the artist. The course will address foundational visual literacy, pictorial syntax and fundamental technical and conceptual "problems, while introducing strategies toward the decomposition of images and perspective "through traditional and nontraditional observational drawing.
