    Description
    (Prerequisite: Art 186.) In this intermediate level sculpture course, both classical and contemporary approaches to figure sculpture are studied. Students are expected to have appropriate experience and knowledge of figure sculpture. Working from live models and studies, students expand on their knowledge of artistic self-expression via the figure, experiment with scale, learn to compose as they examine the human form, and produce representative anatomical studies. Expanded use of materials may include plasticine, clay, wax, armature wire, and plaster. Historical and contemporary approaches to the figure are presented through slide lectures, readings, critiques, research, and visits to exhibits. (CSU/UC)
