Introductory Studio —
Considering alternative, experimental, emergent and traditional forms of art, the introductory studio courses at UFV launch the imagination of students through projects that pr ovoke, examine, explore, and expand meaning. Intersect ions that lead to collaborative possibilities between disciplines encourage theoretical, technical, and conceptual connections, as well as the development of visual literacy, research skills, and thinking about art in intellectual terms. The support and development of students who are creative, informed and engaged world citizens is fundamental to foundation courses.
These courses provide the bulk of creative studio experience for students in the first term of study, and covering a range of materials, techniques, and dimensions to explore. In the second semester, students complete their foundation year by choosing nine to twelve credits of study in the more specific disciplines of painting & drawing, sculpture, new media, print media, and photography.
