ART PRACTICE

Art Practice takes a broad perspective on the work and identity of artists, from the studio artists’ ability to produce meaningful works of art, to the role of artists as cultural producers, arts advocates, community builders, and innovators in a range of creative fields. With the freedom to create a customized path suited to particular strengths and interests, supported by individual mentoring with outstanding faculty, students are equipped to make choices that will prepare them to be versatile and nimble in an ever-changing world. Art Practice students work within and between the areas of Painting, Drawing, Sculpture, Print media, Video/Digital media, Installation, and Performance.

Students have access to some of the finest resources in the country, including the latest technologies in 3-D modeling and printing, an expansive printmaking area, state-of-the-art wood and metal shops, a digital print studio, and a fully functioning foundry. Our newly renovated Sculpture area provides increased workspace and new equipment that will enhance students’ ability to make significant 3-D work.
