Class presentations address the students' approach to defining critical issues related to their work while aspects of developing a fine art practice are presented in conjunction with lectures by visiting artists, curators and directors of museums and galleries. By the end of the term, students will produce a coherent project description, a research report and a substantial body of exploratory works.
