Description

The semester focuses on the BFA exhibition, artist’s talk, and professional documents needed to navigate career opportunities. Second-semester seniors will work on a tutorial basis with faculty during studio visits. Individual studio visits are combined with regular critiques and discussions with peers and visiting critics. Seniors are expected to have identified a direction for their artwork and to be creating an on-going series of substantial works. Studio practice, on a material, technical and process level, must demonstrate an emphasis on honing and refining both the conceptual and the technical aspects of the body of artwork. Research, interpretation and analysis must support the artworks on multiple levels. Communication that articulates artistic intent, influences, and methods will be supported in writing, oral presentations and group discussions with peers, faculty and visiting artists/critics.
