UACC 246 Collaborative Studio: Alchemical Ensemble: Non-Silver Printmaking



1.5 - 3 credits undefined hours
200 level undergraduate course

As technology changes, it allows us to see subject matter differently. Utilizing the 19th century non-silver chemistries of cyanotype and vandyke brown - some of the earliest known photographic and printmaking processes, students from all disciplines will be challenged to produce collaborative art projects based on taxonomy, the practice and science of classification. Research, combined with imagery, text, 2D and 3D objects as light resists, will challenge students to produce prints that address the organization and classification of contemporary subjects and trends. Class visits to view the collections at The Wagner Free Institute, themed exercises and the study of the non-silver processes will help give shape to a culminating, student driven collaborative project.

Collaborative Studio engages students in cross-disciplinary and collaborative processes, building links and connections across the disciplines through diverse cultural experiences, critical writing and discussion.

This course is not repeatable for credit.
