ARTS 4900 - Issues in Studio Art

Credits: 3

This course will address fundamental, theoretical, and practical questions that result from one’s participation in the arts. Participants will examine their own views and others’ aesthetic values as a means of understanding the arts through a multicultural and cross-cultural perspective. Students will also investigate the issues that affect arts organizations within the immediate community and issues relating to current, national and international events in which human values are materialized in art. Emphasis will be placed on field trips to local art institutions and participation at events as well as thinking and writing critically about the arts.
