Description

The combination of language with visual information offers a rich range of possibilities. In this course we will investigate strategies of interweaving image and text to create works that draw upon the qualities of each to produce hybrid forms. The class will look at a variety of sources and respond to them in a series of hands-on studio projects. These sources include maps, diagrams, calligraphy, illustrations and manuscripts, as well as work from the history of art and literature. The projects will involve drawing, printing, book-making, writing and photography to produce work that deploys image and text to express narrative, poetic, political or informational content.

Requisite: studio experience is recommended. Limited to 16 students. Fall semester. Visiting Lecturer Culhane.
