Drawing III Exhibition (Course Requirement)
May 10 – 16, 2009
Gallery 209
Final Exam
Tuesday, May 12 from 4:00 - 5:50 p.m.
Course Objectives
1. Display versatility with a variety of drawing materials and processes.
2. Investigate and challenge established drawing methods through the expressive use of traditional and non-traditional media.
3. Demonstrate the ability to conduct independent research.
4. Make informed creative decisions that combine researched intent with corresponding drawing approaches.
5. Gain an awareness of historical and current drawing practices.
6. Produce a cohesive portfolio of work.
7. Understand and articulate a drawing vocabulary.
8. Effectively plan, prepare and exhibit artwork
Attendance
More than 3 absences may result in a lower grade.
More than 7 absences may result in failing the course.
Grading Policy
• Your grade will be based primarily on your final e-portfolio in which you showcase your learning over the semester and best examples from the class. This e-portfolio will include images of your work and written reflections.
• Other parts of the course that will enter into your grade include:
1. your participation in the Drawing III exhibition (presentation of your work, helping during set-up and take-down, working with the other students to achieve a successful exhibition).
2. the quality of your presentations on assigned contemporary artists.
3. the quality of your interaction with myself, other students, and the subject matter.
4. the quality and consistency of your involvement with your class blog and your blog group.
• A mid-term e-portfolio will be graded to give you an idea of your standing in the class at that point, but may be overridden by the quality of your final portfolio. In other words, the two grades will not be “averaged” for your final grade.
It is part of my job—my responsibility—to give you a grade that lets you and other art “authorities” (other professors, employers, grad schools, gallery owners, etc.) know how your final portfolio and overall attitude during class measure up to given standards.
One useful way to think about grades is to consider them guides as to how other art professionals (besides me) would view your portfolio. How would a design firm see your work? A graduate school acceptance committee? Other professors in the Art & Design department? Gallery owners?
Course Schedule (Tentative):
We will be following the text Drawing: Eight Propositions as a way to research, explore, create, question, and discuss contemporary drawings and contemporary drawing issues.
You will create your drawings outside of class (the expected time spent on research and drawing for this class is six hours per week minimum).
During class time, we will look at work of other artists, discuss articles on contemporary artists & issues, present your blogs, and have critique/noticing sessions.
