DANC 385 Drawing Lab: Extending the Choreographic

1.5 credits 33.75 hours
300 level undergraduate course

This course engages drawing as a practice that activates critical observations/interventions of space, anatomy and movement. The act of drawing will be used to initiate imaginative possibility: how can drawing lead to choreographic practice that dreams, drafts and makes visible new modes of performance? Elements of drawing such as line, tone, texture, solidity/fluidity, atmosphere, spatial planning/design will be discussed and practiced. Drawing exercises will be carried out as both visual art practices and danced studies. A final project will be shared in an open showing.

Priority enrollment to majors in the School of Dance.
Requires completion of 30 credits.
This course is not repeatable for credit.
