ARTS 067 - Intermediate: Embodied Content

FC ARHU

4 credits
All aspects of western oil painting: the skin of paint, the object, the mark-making and the image are intimately linked to the body. The compression of sight and touch, embedded in the traditional practices and techniques of western art, demand an integration of sensory and intellectual experience. This course will introduce the traditional materials and methods of oil paint while encouraging students to expand on these traditions and explore a wide range of interpretations of the body and embodiment as subject matter.
Prerequisites & Notes: An introductory course in painting and an introductory course in drawing are required
