ARTS 380 - Artists Books II 3 s.h.

This course is a further investigation into the dynamic field of Artists Books which builds on the skills and conceptual perspectives introduced in Artists Books I. Exploring complex traditional and innovative structures, and investigating a variety of theoretical approaches, students will continue to develop their conceptual and technical proficiency as they produce sculptural book objects of exhibition and portfolio quality. While this is primarily a studio experience, slides and discussions of this new artistic field will be a complementary component of the course. A focus will be on having the student produce a body of work that can be incorporated into a professional-quality portfolio. Offered once in an academic year.
