FNT752 : Painting / College of Creative Arts

While on the course student will continually engage with what it means to practice as an artist today and the position taken by an art-practice in relation to art's complex history and its currency in wider social and cultural processes. In this course students are brought through into a practice-based research engagement that deals with painting as a mode of practice and also as an inquiry. Each student is encouraged to keep visual diary or any given documentation medium, which reflects on their own personal interests, practice and literature and art/artist references. These materials will become a personal journal towards their own inquires and studio development. At the end of the semester each student will be ask to prepare a viable portfolio via exhibition, which in it consist of a written report and a body of artwork(s).
