Myth, Symbol, Image

23-4770

Course explores connections among idea, meaning, and image. Students study devices such as analogy and metaphor in literature, art, and photography, to map the origins of their creative ideas and influences while exploring a diverse range of art making methods and expanding their critical language. Coursework consists of assigned readings, group critiques, one paper, and an ongoing series of photographs.

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