ART 3300 - Installation

Credits: 3

This intermediate-level course focuses on both concepts and skills exploring installation art from its origins in 1923 when El Lissitzky created sculptures that occupied the corners of his “Proun Rooms.” Students investigate contemporary and historical artists who work in this genre. Students work on and off campus to create their own installation-based works. Field trips are taken to view locally exhibited examples of installation art. At the conclusion of this course, students will understand the vernacular of installation art and create their own installation-based work confidently.

Prerequisites: Completion of 45+ credits or approval of department Chair.
