    Description
    This introductory course will expose students to a broad spectrum of ceramic art from diverse cultures including Western/European Art, Asian/Middle Eastern Art, Meso-American Art and African Art with a focus on visual theory, aesthetics, criticism and historical context. Students will develop critical thinking skills through the analysis of cultural and technological constructs that influence the creation of specific genres. In addition, with an emphasis on creative problem solving skills, students will produce original works of ceramic art by reinterpreting the traditions they study in a contemporary context.
