F150-159: Visual Statement Print
In Visual Statement courses students examine the means of visual communication and artistic expression. Each course emphasizes concept, process and creativity - exploiting subject matter and media as a means of obtaining conceptual goals. Students are made aware of the interconnections which link the visual arts. Two different Visual Statement Selectives are a requirement for each student during the Foundations year. The student selects one each semester from a variety of offerings.
