Painting Studio

Undergraduate / Graduate

This course will provide you with the opportunity to take a deeper dive into painting within a studio format modeled on painting studios in art schools and academies. At the outset of the course, you will be assigned a studio space in the painting classroom at the Logan center for the duration of the class. Two concurrent sections of this course will afford you access to two instructors who, working in tandem in this open studio atmosphere, will promote creative exchange. We will make field trips to galleries, museums, and artists studios as we get to know the greater Chicago community of painters across the city. This course makes use of research, reading, informal writing, museum visits, digital imagery, group discussions and critiques in a rigorous and supportive studio environment.
