SA 312 - Abstract Painting

(3.00 cr.)

Prerequisite: SA 224 . Looking at the tradition of abstraction from cubism, neoplasticism, abstract expressionism, color field painting, and minimalism, students create original works that focus on form, color, and texture. Through a series of painting explorations, critiques, field trips, and examination of work by Jackson Pollock and others, students gain a better understanding of what is meant by "content in abstraction."
