SCULPTURE 1 is an introduction to the basic elements, techniques, and history of sculpture. We cover both additive and reductive processes including plaster casting, wood construction, and stone carving. There is an emphasis on the development of form and structure particular to each process. Class work and discussion are supplemented with slide talks, a museum field trip, and talks by visiting artists. Extensive work outside of class is required. There will be in class critiques of each project.
