    Description
    (Prerequisite: Art 285.) This advanced level sculpture course helps students transition to a higher level of professional growth. Students are expected to have appropriate experience and knowledge of figure sculpture. Working from maquettes, studies, and research, students expand on their knowledge of the pose, analyze spatial relationship and proportion, experiment with scale, learn to compose as they examine the human form, and produce representative anatomical studies. Expanded use of materials may include digital fabrication, metal casting, 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)
