Art 491 Advanced Painting II
A two-term sequence offering a contemporary view of painting through the exploration of various media, subject matter, and conceptual approaches. Research, idea generation, and production will be emphasized. Art 490/590: Students begin to develop an independent body of work within a historical and theoretical context. This course concentrates on working methods of research and execution through closely guided assistance. Art 491/591: Building on the processes and research practiced in Art 490/590, students complete a focused and unified body of work sustained by specific critical analysis. Courses must be taken in sequence. Open to non-majors who have prerequisites and consent of the instructor. Also offered for graduate-level credit as Art 591 and may be taken only once for credit. This is the second course in a sequence of two: Art 490 and Art 491 and must be taken in sequence.
