Overview of class

This course explores installation art in all media. Students may incorporate a variety of media including video, photography, painting, projected light, sound, and sculptural materials in works to expand the physical boundaries beyond the discrete object. Emphasis is on independent projects with individual and group discussions throughout the quarter. Students are introduced to techniques for making proposals, lighting installation and documentation.

This course will employ studio production, readings, lectures, class discussions, guest speakers, and field trips to enable a discourse around the history of installation art and its expanded territories in a contemporary context.

Class Materials (Required)

Course costs will vary with students own research interests in course.
