18 hours CE level continuing studies course Learn a wide-range of 3D techniques and processes, including modeling, carving and installation, among others. Work in numerous media in various shops across the university. This course may not be audited.
45.0 hours 100 level undergraduate course An introduction to sculpture concepts and processes used in the creation of traditional and contemporary sculpture, including fabrication, found materials and perceptual modeling. Form making options are suited to acquaint beginning students with the diversity of approaches to contemporary sculpture. This course may be completed 2 times for credit.
90.0 hours 200 level undergraduate course This class is an introduction to fabrication processes used in contemporary sculpture. Acquisition of basic woodworking and metalworking skills, and exploring material selection are the basis for creating works that combine form, expression and concept. Students will gain an understanding of structure and scale by creating larger works. Visual analysis, problem solving and critical thinking skills are developed through group critiques, seminars and one on one meetings with faculty. The creative process is developed through material studies, drawings and writing. Models and finished works will be created in the Digital Fabrication Studio. Skills covered in this course include mig welding, oxy/acetylene welding, arc welding, cold bending, forging and metal finishing. In the wood shop students learn basic wood joinery using all power wood working equipment including the table saw, drill press, radial arm saw, planer and joiner. Requires completion of 30 credits. This course may be completed 2 times for credit.
90.0 hours 200 level undergraduate course Anatomic and morphological analysis of male and female bodies for artists through a three-dimensional constructional method. Proportions, anatomic structure, surface topology, morphological variation, and the body in movement are covered. Directed toward two-dimensional artists as well as sculptors. The means by which the body’s salient features can be recognized from any viewpoint in any pose is stressed. This course may be completed 2 times for credit.
undefined hours 200 level undergraduate course Covers processes and techniques utilizing plaster, ceramic shell, rubber, plastics, clays, and wax for making hard and flexible molds and for casting sculpture in durable materials. Provides a thorough foundation in foundry practices, including wax preparation, investing, cope and drag, pouring bronze and aluminum, chasing, finishing, and applying patinas to finished metal casts. The additional contact hours for students taking the 3.0 credit option will allow for greater depth of study in foundry techniques. Requires completion of 30 credits. This course may be completed 2 times for credit.
45.0 hours 200 level undergraduate course Introduces the student to carving, one of the basic methods of forming sculpture. Students learn to prepare, maintain, and use the tools of the carver. They are introduced to the characteristics of suitable carving materials. Emphasis is placed on the exploration of the formal and expressive potentials of carved sculpture. Requires completion of 30 credits. This course may be completed 2 times for credit. This course may not be audited. This course cannot be taken pass/fail.
90.0 hours 200 level undergraduate course Students explore the potential of form making through the processes of modeling and carving. Plaster, wax, clay, resins, wood, foam, and stone will be investigated and used in traditional and nontraditional ways. Students will trace the histories of these processes, learn how they are used in contemporary sculpture, and invent possible future applications. Perceptual modeling and the creation of abstract forms will reveal the communicative power of form and develop visual acuity. Students will learn the basics of mold making and bronze casting in this course. Conceptual thinking and creativity are developed through material studies, drawings, and learning to write about your work. Models and finished works will be created in the Digital Fabrication Studio. Visual analysis, problem solving, and critical thinking skills are developed through group critiques, seminars, and one-on-one meetings with faculty. This course is not repeatable for credit.
90.0 hours 300 level undergraduate course Using the body as a reference point, site and metaphor for creating sculpture, students will explore concepts relating to anatomy and the body biological (the five senses, the nervous system, proportions), the body social (intervention, relational aesthetics), persona and identity. Students will explore sculptural approaches to the body, such as body extensions, works that encompass the five senses, tools, and imaginative prosthetics. This course may be completed 2 times for credit.
90.0 hours 300 level undergraduate course Students will create installations that explore issues of spacemaking, site specificity, public sculpture, interactivity, public space vs. private space and viewer participation. Finished works will incorporate sound, video, and mixed media. The history of installation and interactive work will be discussed through a series of lectures and video presentations that examine the art historical, social, cultural, and psychological concerns from which these art forms are derived. Visual analysis, problem solving, and critical thinking skills are developed through group critiques, seminars and one on one meetings with faculty. This course may be completed 2 times for credit.
90.0 hours 400 level undergraduate course Advanced Sculpture students will develop the studio practice of a professional sculptor. Exploration of technique, research and methodology will lay the groundwork for refining an independent body of work for a thesis exhibition in the senior year. Students will gain an understanding of the intellectual, philosophical, political, and historical implications of various movements in art history in order to connect ideas to their own creative practice within the field of contemporary sculpture. Conceptual thinking and creativity are developed through material studies, research, drawing and learning to write about your work. Visual analysis, problem solving and critical thinking skills are developed through group critiques, seminars and one on one meetings with faculty. Prerequisites Any 200 or 300 level SCLP course This course may be completed 2 times for credit.
90.0 hours 400 level undergraduate course For students seriously involved with the figure, this course provides an atelier to continue figure modeling on increasingly advanced levels and a context to help formulate a personal figurative sculptural idiom. Works are sculptured at various scales, including life size, and independent projects are undertaken in consultation with the faculty. Critiques involving the meaning and sculptural significance of the works are an integral part of the ongoing class activity. Prerequisites SCLP*203, SCLP*211, or SCLP*242 This course may be completed 2 times for credit.
45.0 hours 400 level undergraduate course Forming metal sculpture has contributed much to the history of sculpture, particularly in the present, where the idiom has become as familiar as carving and modeling. Concurrently offering both basic and advanced technical instruction in welding and forging, using both ferrous and non-ferrous metals, this course is concerned with both the technical and aesthetic aspects of metal sculpture. This course may be completed 2 times for credit.
