ART 305. Professional Practices in Art Studio


Credits 3.00 PeopleSoft Course ID 014759 Grading Basis GRD

In this course, students consider several aspects of an artist’s work that are not related to studio practice, but are nonetheless crucial as a creative practitioner. The course will combine seminar discussions, guest lectures and workshop sessions. Areas to cover include: how to produce effective artist’s statements and resumes, marketing and self-promotion; how to use photography to document your artwork; grant-writing strategies; and cover letters for residencies and internships. Students will be expected to review their blog or website including the statements, resumes and photos produced in the course. Prerequisite(s): ART 105  and B.F.A. Art majors  only.
