The seminar is designed to focus on the changing landscape of art, where we will examine concepts and technologies of the field, and pursue work of individual direction. Advanced studio technologies and computer applications will supplement the course to challenge conceptual growth, facilitate design, and present new means of fabrication. Subjects are presented to challenge students to conduct research and examine their own position. Discussions and presentations vary to recognize the direction of the group and include singular object-driven problems, formal issues, and conceptual challenges. The course includes larger group discussion with all majors, demonstrations to support individual directions, visiting artists, field trips and presentations. The completion of work and preparation for the presentation of the BFA Exhibition will take place. Required of 4th year graduating Jewelry & Metals majors. 3 credits.
