ARTSTUDI 242: Drawing and Creative Writing
A dynamic mix of guided writing and drawing assignments, and self-driven studio time. We will get dirty with the ABCs of drawing while playing with freeing constraints and looking closely into the visual dimension of words. Through a spirited, daily practice students will learn how to trust and blast open the art that they uniquely make. Students will create their own semiotic games, word-shapes and poem-pictures. Investigating cross-pollinations, intersections and possibilities as points of departure, we will experiment with inventive tensions between visual and written images. We will look at (and write about) art history as artists.

ARTSTUDI 242A: Drawing and Cameras
How do images move, and what does living in the crossfire of so many cameras do to our seeing? What else can we do with drawing, besides becoming perfect cameras? Students respond to their own questions and archives by thinking visually through a series of fun, hands-on exercises that integrate drawing and the experimental use of cameras. Students lift images by redrawing and transforming them using charcoal, ink, color. We learn about diverse voices, including Queer and Latin American artists and thinkers, inviting us to ponder the ways in which they've shifted the mediums of drawing, photography, video. Prerequisite: Drawing 1 or permission of instructor.
