Course Description: Ceramic Concepts and Practices

Ceramic Concepts and Practices

22-2241

This course explores the conceptual possibilities and technical complexities of ceramic material as a vehicle for Contemporary Art and Design. A large cross section of activity in clay will be considered and discussed, from brickmaking to porcelain design, and from handbuilding and moldmaking to hybrid materials. Historical and contemporary models will be referenced throughout the class, while considering what terms such as "craft" and "utility" can mean in a contemporary context.

Course descriptions are stored in OASIS and are maintained by the Associate Dean for each School.
