Class time will be divided between readings, presentations, and one studio based creative project. The urban setting in which the various forms of art are created, presented, and received will form a special point of focus. A principal aim of the seminar will be to develop aesthetic sensibilities through writing critically about the art that interests and engages us and making art.

ARTSTUDI 19N: An Artist's Life: Diverse Voices and Changing Contexts

This course is designed for students considering an Art Practice minor or major. In this course, students gain confidence and experience connecting to their artistic voices as we explore the myriad possible career paths artists take to build sustainable careers. The course consists of a series of studio projects, each centered around a different artist whose career and art practice we study. The example artists will be primarily artists of color, or artists from communities which are underrepresented in the art world, with practices and careers ranging from the conventional to the more unusual. The goal of these artist selections is to model the possibilities of an art career for students who do not easily see themselves well represented in the mainstream art world, while also broadening all students¿ understanding of the many different methods for making work and practicing as an artist today.

ARTSTUDI 22AX: Drawing and Creative Writing

Drawing and Creative Writing is a dynamic mix of hands-on drawing studio time and guided writing assignments. This hybrid studio course invites students to experience the perceptual power of drawing and the written word in concert. Drawing and writing are at the roots of most works of art. An intensive practice of these disciplines gives us a marvelous, meditative place from which to learn about the art one can make, uniquely, and about the wisdom of "beginner's mind." This course is open to everyone. We will get our hands dirty with the ABCs of drawing, look closely into the visual dimensions of language, make up semiotic games, word-shapes, and in general use drawing to experiment with inventive tensions between text and image. What does it mean to draw with the eyes of a writer? Or to write like an artist? We will see that our work can be both an artifact and a portal that leads to transformative chains of associations. Here are key tools for visual thinking and problem solving and more »

Here are key tools for visual thinking and problem solving and growing our imagination. And as we play with poem-pictures and word-works and images of writing as we interrogate their cross-pollinations, purposes, possibilities our aim will also be to repair our ability to pay sustained attention. So we'll work to expand our awareness, see with fresh eyes, challenge stereotypes, allow wild ideas to flow, and come into direct contact with surprising art. We will look at art history as artists.

ARTSTUDI 23AX: Drawing

Two fun activities on campus during the summer are drawing in the studio and being outdoors. In this Arts Intensive Drawing class students will do both. The course will revolve around composition and layout, expressive mark-making, and basic drawing techniques. Mainly using pencil and charcoal as our primary medium, this class will explore dynamic compositions found in nature, gestural figure drawing, and portraiture. Students will also have the opportunity to work on quick and in-depth drawings, gaining a more excellent working knowledge of line, shape, perspective, proportion, volume, and composition. On-campus drawing-based visits will include the Anderson Collection and Cactus Garden. An off-campus docent-led tour at the San Jose Museum of Modern Art will provide students the historical awareness of artists who have worked in this manner. The whole class is meant to be an experimental lab while allowing students to gain a rigorous foundation in drawing. Honing individual style is encouraged!
