Overview of class

This course is designed to give undergraduate students an opportunity to make what is considered "a body of work"; multiple works that shares a united theme or subject. Each student will work with a self-directed theme or subject of their choice and produce 5 - 10 works over the course of the quarter. The class will explore a variety of prompts and approaches to painting, that include but aren't not limited to prompts that are timed, image based and text based. Research for respective projects will look different for each student but may include theory, literature, interviews, art history and found source material. We will support classroom activities through group discussion, critiques, brief lectures, and field trips to galleries in the city of Chicago. This is an advanced painting class so students must have already taken Introduction to Painting. This is an oil painting only course.
