FYS 1236 - Art on the Edge

Credits: 4
Why should we care about art and artists? How have the arts and artists contributed to and participated in cultural dialogues that have been evolving over thousands of years? Through readings, writing, studio problems, trips off-campus, visiting artist lectures, and collaboration, students will receive a thorough introduction to this dialogue and will specifically investigate three broad topics throughout the semester: the Artist, the Object, and the Institution.
