  • ART 1010: Intro To Visual Arts

    3.00 Credits
    University of Utah

    Three basic content areas: the creative process, art criticism, and aesthetics, along with a chronological history of art. The content within these three areas is designed to be gender-conscious, cross-cultural, and discipline-correlated--meaning that visual art is introduced to include filmmaking, computer graphics, architecture, sculpture, painting, drawing, graphic design, and photography. The creative process, aesthetics, composition, and history draw upon all of the diverse interests mentioned above.

  • ART 1015: Response to Materials

    3.00 Credits
    University of Utah

    This is an introductory studio course where non-art major students will create visual art in both two-and three- dimensional media. Rather than being focused on a specific technique or artistic medium, this class introduces art techniques, concepts, and methods through a response to the physical materials used. This approach results in a wide-ranging exploration that includes traditional art materials and techniques such as ink, pencil, charcoal, paint, printmaking, paper, wood, and wire, as well as newer more contemporary genres related to installation and new media. It will also introduce the use of found materials such as books, natural objects, and discarded items that can be incorporated into mixed-media assemblages. The conceptual focus is on building the ability to communicate ideas, themes, and personal experiences using the language of visual art.
