    Description
    This course is an interdisciplinary studio course that explores art practices and issues underlying contemporary fine art activity with an emphasis on the influence of modern and postmodern perspectives. The nature, origins, methods, and implications of various art movements and genre are examined and the dissolution of traditional boundaries between media categories are explored including installation, appropriation, semiotics, performance art, art and technology, and digital and/or video art. Using traditional and/or alternative media, students develop a personal visual language for the creation of content-oriented art works. Portfolio development for transfer is emphasized.
