This course is an introduction to portraiture: its techniques, history, and social uses. Many genres of portraiture will be surveyed to analyze how they give expression to cultural and societal values. Formal portraiture, character stereotypes, images from popular culture, African and Asian masks, the face of the nude, expressionistic psychological portraiture, commercial portrait styles, and the self-portrait, all will be discussed and explored. Live models will pose.
