ARTT-102 Three-Dimensional Art and Design

This course is an introduction to the elements and principles of three-dimensional design. The emphasis is on the design of form and space, visual organization, the development of conceptual ideas, and the use of materials that lead to the desired intent. Students will work in a variety of traditional material, non-traditional media, and newer technologies. Virtual space and the nonlinear connections found on the world-wide web will also be a spatial consideration. This course will develop the learning strategies needed to succeed in the conception, organization, and production of unique works of three-dimensional art.

    solving for each project.
  3. 3. Identify and apply basic three-dimensional art and design concepts, posing and addressing
    questions on perspectives, social and cultural contexts, and assumptions to establish one’s
    own critical assessment of an artwork.
