Class Description:
The core of this course is the development of fully-formed bodies of work in a refined presentation format. The broader goal, however, is for students to embrace their art-making as a way to engage their inner selves and the world at large! All types of photographic (or mixed) media are encouraged. The common objective for each student this semester is to conceive of and complete one brilliant, astounding extended project, and use it to learn (and teach the rest of us) something about yourself and the world. You will write a short artist statement to accompany your final project, with help on working drafts throughout the semester. Technical topics will be covered as needed, demos determined by the class may include advanced lighting, Photoshop techniques, large format camera use, advanced silver printing, social networks, etc. Students will spend the first 10 weeks of the semester producing an extended single project, then a shorter follow-on project incorporating themes and growth from the first project. Students will begin by identifying areas of passion and curiosity that lend themselves to exploration through an extended project. We will start by looking at previous work, then draw from aspects of your artistic, intellectual and emotional lives. This class relies heavily on student interaction in crits, brainstorming sessions and discussions. You will all be helping each other conceive of and guide your projects. There will be at least three work-in-progress crits in addition to the final crit. We will have at least one working artist or curator from the community to help conduct one of the crits. The first major project will be shown in a mid-semester class exhibit. Each student will select a shared reading for the class, prepare questions and lead a discussion. The reading can be fiction or non-fiction, anything that informs your work and sensibilities. These need not be art theory or history, rather readings that are engaged with the non-art world outside school and museums. We will also view and discuss the work of historic and contemporary artists thought lectures and field trips

Class Description:
Advanced Photography: As taught by Jan Estep during Fall 2011, this course is geared to the advanced student who is self-directed and self-motivated and wants a critical, creative context within which to explore his or her own artwork. Assignments, critiques, and group discussions are designed to help you further clarify your approach to photography, with a particular emphasis on the following: the shape of your own particular conceptual, emotional, and aesthetic gestures, the way your ideas take material form, your ability to articulate your concerns and interests, and the way your work relates to art history, contemporary art and theory, and the culture at large. Gaining a clearer sense of yourself as an artist is the main goal of this course, with a secondary goal of understanding the conceptual issues related to the photographic medium. The course will emphasize critique, readings and discussions, presentations, and independent studio/lab time. Students must be present and productive during all phases (participating during discussions and critiques and working on their own during lab). To gain familiarity with theoretical issues concerning photography, we will have four seminar-style reading discussions, with students sharing the responsibility for presenting the material in class. Students also will produce and present an initial project proposal, a short artist statement that will be workshopped in class, a final project, and various less-formal presentations and responses. I will also periodically offer slide and video presentations to round out the course.
Class Format:
10% Lecture
5% Film/Video
35% Discussion
20% Student Presentations
30% Studio Class will be a mix of readings, discussion, slide lectures, video screenings, critique, and student presentations. This is not a technical course but an informed studio, seminar-style course.
Workload:
15-30 Pages Reading Per Week
5 Pages Writing Per Term
4 Presentation(s)
1 Special Project(s)
Other Workload: Four reading assignments discussed in class. Two short writing assignments for all students. One extra writing assignment for graduate students. Students work on creative projects outside of class for group critique in class.

Meets with ArtS 8700
Class Description:
Advanced Photography: As taught by Jan Estep during Fall 2011, this course is geared to the advanced student who is self-directed and self-motivated and wants a critical, creative context within which to explore his or her own artwork. Assignments, critiques, and group discussions are designed to help you further clarify your approach to photography, with a particular emphasis on the following: the shape of your own particular conceptual, emotional, and aesthetic gestures, the way your ideas take material form, your ability to articulate your concerns and interests, and the way your work relates to art history, contemporary art and theory, and the culture at large. Gaining a clearer sense of yourself as an artist is the main goal of this course, with a secondary goal of understanding the conceptual issues related to the photographic medium. The course will emphasize critique, readings and discussions, presentations, and independent studio/lab time. Students must be present and productive during all phases (participating during discussions and critiques and working on their own during lab). To gain familiarity with theoretical issues concerning photography, we will have four seminar-style reading discussions, with students sharing the responsibility for presenting the material in class. Students also will produce and present an initial project proposal, a short artist statement that will be workshopped in class, a final project, and various less-formal presentations and responses. I will also periodically offer slide and video presentations to round out the course.
