Printmaking: Advanced. (0-9) 3 Credit Hours

Catalog description

Prerequisite: ART 2413 . An emphasis on the development of a personal vision and individual approach to the use of the medium, including experimentation in multiple processes. ART 4433 may be repeated for credit, but no more than 18 credits will apply to a degree. Specific School of Art degree plans require students to take this course multiple times up to 15 credit hours (including Internship and Independent Study where the work falls primarily in the discipline of printmaking). Students are introduced to new processes and expected to experiment with and refine processes used in previous semesters of ART 4433 . This process of developing a refined skill set is time consuming and individualized to each student, as are the benchmarks of material, process, and conceptual success that characterize each student’s work. Students taking ART 4433 for additional credit will be evaluated on an increased mastery of the skill sets defined above in the learning outcomes of this course. Increased mastery of skills will include but not be limited to: the exploration of an additional material(s) not used in prior semesters; the experimentation with, and the refinement of, an additional process(es) not used in prior semesters; improved personal standard of quality demonstrated by a refinement in the sophistication of conceptual, material, and process success that characterize the student’s work; a demonstrated improvement of the student’s ability or skill to formulate and verbally articulate their developing artistic direction measured against performance in prior semesters as well as over the course of the semester; an increased and more specific understanding of the history of printmaking especially directed towards the interests and investigations of the student. May be repeated for credit. Generally offered: Fall, Spring. Course Fee: LRLF $10.27; SAF1 $45; SAF2 $150; STLF $18.48.
