DescriptionSondra Perry, Rashid Johnson, William Pope L, Sonya Clark, Ghada Amer, Friedensreich Hundertwasser, Ingrid Mwangi, Anish Kapoor, Helen Mirra, El Anatsui, Eva Hesse. Since the 1960s, the increasing variety of media options has created more diverse working fields for artists. While this may make it easier for more artists to find areas of expression, it may also be more challenging for students to map their own artistic language. This course is designed for students who are beginning to develop their own personalities as artists. Experimenting with materials, techniques, and styles, on the basis of collective readings and written personal statements, will be central to this class. Multimedia Crossings is a maker's course with a theory component. Readings, assigned slide presentations and class discussions will be informed by the work of non-Western contemporary artists. Students will be expected to complete assigned projects as well as independent projects outside of class time and to write and present one seminar paper. Student evaluation will be based on timely submission of coursework, attendance, and active participation in class discussions and critiques.
