IGRPH 7300 Graduate Studio and Critical Studies Seminar III
This course is the third of four required Graduate Studio seminars. Seminar III consists of a full day of activity on a weekly basis, and is a team-taught course that includes scheduled meetings with the Visiting Artists each semester. Based upon a foundation of personal work in progress, students will be consistently producing and refining their portfolios in Seminar, while simultaneously relating their work, and process, to critical, historical and contemporary concerns. Each week will focus on group critique and discussion of conceptual issues and response to course readings. New work will be expected for each critique session, and subject to class response. A multi-day field trip to New York will be part of each fall semester. Through all four semesters of Graduate Studio Seminar, students will be expected to produce a graduate level body of work that will solidly support their Thesis Studio project, writing, and graduate exhibition.
