COURSE DESCRIPTION

GART 1B61
Site & Intervention: Drawing
0.50 Credit(s)
Studio
Prerequisite: Students must have completed a minimum of 1.0 credit of First-year studio curriculum.
Site & Intervention challenges traditional notions of how space can have an impact on artwork by intervening on public and other spaces.

Drawing operates in a variety of appearances and conventional and non-conventional ways. Students in this studio course will investigate a range of drawing approaches and artworks that address issues of site, context, and audience. Readings, in-class discussion and studio projects, slide lectures and gallery visits will support students’ exploration of drawing in ways that have not historically been associated with this discipline. Students will explore how drawing installation or site specific practices shift the meaning and reading of the artwork and how the artwork may transform the place.
