This painting course is the introduction of the fundamental
techniques, historical practices and concepts involved in painting. It aims to
stimulate perceptual growth and to familiarize the student with a basic
vocabulary of painting materials; and to develop an awareness of the role of
visual perception, the expressive potentials of paint as a medium and
intuition. Color theory, compositional structure, figure/ground
relationships, spatial concepts, and critical thinking skills will be
investigated. Students will be given assignments in painting directly
from life and will be expected to keep a sketchbook/journal. Course
objectives: Classroom time will include demonstrations, studio work, slide
lectures, personal and group critiques. It is expected that each student be
self-motivated, attend all classes plus spend time outside of the scheduled
class times on independent assignments. The course aims to develop students’
ability to verbalize ideas and processes in art making, and become
familiarized with history and explore, expand and challenge what painting can
be, look like and express. Please Note: Students are responsible for
purchasing an ‘Art Kit’ of supplies for this course. These kits are around
$200. *The Fund for Visual Learning provides material support to students on
need-based financial aid to help them with art supplies. Students taking a

This course serves as an introduction to the technical,
conceptual and historical practices of painting. Through a variety of painting
experiences and presentations using a variety of media, students progress
from observational exercises and exposure to formal materials and techniques
to developing personal processes, imagery and ideas. Class sessions include
technical demonstrations, illustrated lectures, personal and group critiques.
In modeling canonical precedents and the contemporary landscape of painting,
students will explore, expand and challenge “what painting can be, look like
and express” as they refine their individualized relationship to painting as
beginning painters. Please Note: Students are responsible for purchasing an

In this Sculpture 1 class, students will work with
materials and processes to investigate form, space, surface, material,
location and gesture. Particular emphasis will be placed on direct and improvisational
ways of working. The class will be structured around weekly and bi-weekly
assignments that begin with a prompt (example: “make a sculpture that hangs
in the balance”) that introduces the class to a medium, technique and set of
ideas. Students will work with cardboard, string, found objects and other
simple materials to make their three-dimensional artworks. They will then
move on to work with basic casting, light carpentry and welding. There will
also be demonstrations in ceramics and sewing. Group critiques of projects
will be supplemented by demonstrations in materials and techniques,
presentations of related modern and contemporary artwork. |

Sculpture One will explore materials, techniques and tools
used to make sculpture. Sculpture is not only an object – it is an
action … we join, break, cut, mix, mold, melt, mend, make mistakes and have
successes. We work through thinking, planning, working, drawing,
instinct, emotion, guessing, risking, seeing, not seeing, laughing, crying,
boredom, screaming, throwing, wrecking, loving … finding ourselves and others
through making. Mediums remember…forms remember what’s inside us.
Sculpture One is subtitled THE CHAIR as the chair will serve as a
proposition, placeholder, site, condition, glue and/or event where we, the
class, can touch base in that common object - sculpture. We will learn
to work with wood, steel, clay, plaster, wax, silicone, fabric and found
objects. |

This course will provide an introduction to this
fundamental form of mark-making, its history, its evolution and its extension
into other areas of contemporary art. Students will gain experience and
understanding of many basic tools, techniques, and approaches to drawing; how
to generate content and develop ideas; and how to extend the medium into a
larger practice. Throughout the course, we will create and continuously
evolve and refine a definition of drawing which will morph, expand and
contract as we go. We will begin with foundational drawing techniques:
contour, gesture, tone/value, life drawing, negative space and perspective.
We will integrate color and abstraction, and then later will explore
approaches to developing content and composition: narrative, research,
intention/intuition and scale. Students will propose, plan, and execute a
self-directed drawing series project for their final exam. Throughout the
semester we will dabble into extended definitions of drawing through
exercises and games, including frottage/rubbing, drawing as text/chart/map,
active or performative drawing, and drawing in three dimensions. Please Note:

Traction is a mechanical term describing
the action of drawing or pulling a thing over a surface. In this level I
printmaking course, we will press, erase, rub, and apply grounds and resists,
to produce physical residues of our actions to paper. Our first prints will
be made from a series of the processes drypoint,
hardground, aquatint, and photo etching on zinc plates, working with
photographic images as our source material and printing onto heavyweight
cotton rag paper. We’ll next work off a relief surface, with laser machine
carved blocks and watercolor in the Japanese relief printing technique, onto
lightweight, strong and delicate mulberry paper. For our third project, we’ll
work with text and redaction, and print onto found, already-printed and
recycled paper using trace monotype, rubbings, and collagraph
techniques. In the last section of the course we will choose techniques we’ve
worked with to make independent projects. No prerequisites. Please

How can we feel part of a larger net of complete interconnection
and in fact share our insights of ecological, social-political and communal
dependencies? In this interdisciplinary class we will use our creative energy
for both self investigation as well as a means to visualize and realize the
reality of our shared community. “Everybody is an artist" stated
conceptual artist Joseph Beuys. His vision of "social sculpture"
pointed not only to our creative power but also to everyone's responsibility
to shape the conditions of society. Art becomes a healing force in everyday
life. This is an ELAS class (Engaged Liberal Arts and Sciences), thus linking
artistic creation, intellectual study, and community engagement together. We
will use various artistic means in order to create collaborative art projects
to support our community in the process of realized interconnection. Weekly
homework consists of practical explorations (drawing, sewing, mindful
photography, performance, awareness exercises) and readings (Beuys concept of
social sculpture, Buddhist ecology, Zen philosophy, community art projects).
We will also spend some time outside (Bard Farm) to realize the coexistence
with our Mother Earth. |

When is a painting “queer?" In this intermediate
painting class, students will be guided in composition-building methods and material
explorations that move "against the grain" of painting conventions.
Investigations of the painterly process will be augmented by readings and
discussions exploring a lineage of LGBTQ+ artists. Research will include
focused explorations of queer practices that intersect with those of
marginalized communities globally. Students will consider how artistic
practices have intertwined with social and political activism. Participants
will explore a series of structured prompts; they will conclude the semester
by pursuing independent projects with queer-oriented themes. Some prompts
will include expanded painting practices that fold in other media.
Prerequisite: Painting 1 or permission of the instructor. Note: this class
requires a supplies kit priced at approximately $100; additionally, students

Students will experiment with wide-ranging and innovative
drawing techniques. In this course we will be actively thinking through
questions about ownership, value, consumption, and portraiture through
experimental approaches to drawing. Utilizing materials such as charcoal,
ink, cardboard, found objects, and more, we will explore gestural, abstract,
automatic, and expressive styles. We will be pushing limits of what we might
define as drawing, reinventing what surfaces and tools look like, asking
critical questions about what role it plays in an art practice more broadly,
and what say we have in that process. We will be supplementing our experiments
with research and readings from a range of artists and writers who have dealt
with these questions before us, some well known and some less so. There will
be independent and also group work being made in the studio class with
potential to continue projects beyond class if you choose. Be prepared to be
present, show up for one another, and to play - we are interested in
cultivating a dialogue that can remain as a resource to draw from in the

In this course we will delve into the creation of unique
prints through explorations in monoprint and monotype. This will be a
workshop-style environment where we will explore these processes with an
emphasis on spontaneity, experimentation and play. Coursework will emphasize
independence in direction and motivation and the development of a dialogue
between individual ideas and the print processes. A MONOTYPE is essentially a
printed painting. While it is technically the simplest form of printmaking,
it is also the one that strives to honor the individuality of the hand’s
painterly impulse. For this reason,
monotypes are a wonderful tool to quickly develop ideas of color, light,
shape, and composition that are not only informative to the painting process,
but are an end in themselves. MONOPRINTS are one of a kind prints that stem
from a repeatable matrix. They can be
serial images, that include relief, intaglio, stencil and collagraph
techniques, but the resulting prints are unique to each other rather than
traditional editions. While specific assignments will be given in class
alongside technical demonstrations, you must come to this course with visual
ideas that you intend to develop, whether abstract or representational, or
both. Prerequisite: Painting 1 and/or Print 1 |

for art, activism, experimentation and dialogue. Projects will include
individual and collective works in the format of physical and digital zines,
collective editions and small books. These endeavors will be organized by

Not all physical artmaking is tangible and not all digital
artmaking is immaterial. Increasingly, hardware and software tools are interwoven
into the production of art objects and allow artists to expand or augment
their creative practices. In this course we will experiment with digital
processes that can be used to create sculptures, prints, drawings and
installations. Students will create projects utilizing large format printing,
laser cutting, 3D printing, projection mapping, video sculpture and other
media applications. Class discussions will focus on how production choices
support an artist’s concept and execution. Weekly presentations will expose
students to artists who have blurred the boundary between traditional and
emerging artistic techniques. Prerequisite: any level 1 course in Studio Art,
Photography or Film/Electronic Arts or by permission of the instructor. |

Time-based art can range from photo series to
performance, from animated GIFs to sound installation, and beyond. In this
studio class we will create artistic experiences that explore alternative
temporalities and creatively engage with subjective time. Each of several
project assignments will correspond to a time-scale, from brief (seconds) to
long (weeks). In addition to studio work and group critiques, the class will
discuss relevant artworks and readings (drawn from disabilities studies,
postcolonial theory, and media studies) that highlight how different
understandings of time can acknowledge different lived realities.
Prerequisite: any level 1 course in Studio Art, Photography or

Painters have a way of seeing and processing the world that
gives rise to imagery unique to them. In this class you will be asked to
clearly define a point of inspiration and create a body of work which is
informed both conceptually and formally by such inspiration. The
projects we pursue are designed to aid in this endeavor. We identify
the “vivid” impulses particular to you and we want to give them a channel for
manifestation through the most appropriate materials, skills, tools,
processes, concepts and formal elements. The assignments in this class
are largely prompts to aid you in locating and evolving your individual works.
Group and private critiques are structured to help you articulate and
challenge your ideas clearly to your peers. Please send a short statement (2
—3 sentences) about why you are interested in the class and also five images
of recent work. Send to self@bard.edu prior to Dec. 9. Prerequisites: Painting I and Painting II
or permission of instructor. |

selves, through creating costumes, artifacts and objects. Think puppetry,

The artistic technique known as collage proliferated across
mediums throughout the 20th century, challenging notions of authorship while interrogating
art’s socio-political role. A series of projects will explore different
aspects of collage, and students are encouraged to work with the media of
their choosing--from photomontage to DJing/remixing and beyond. Studio work
and group critiques will be complemented by classroom discussion on key
art-historical moments in cut & paste culture. |

Senior Seminar is a component of the senior project and is
an integral part of the 8 credits earned for Senior Project. The
Seminar will focus on Studio Arts faculty and visiting artists presenting
their life and work. Exhibitions in the fall semester will draw
students out of their studios well before the presentation of their senior
show. Visits from alumni and the Director of Career Development, will
provide a glimpse into the future. The Senior Project Exhibition is the
culmination of the Senior year and is evaluated before a faculty review board
and a Senior Seminar critique. *Any student registered in Studio Art Senior
Project or any student of another discipline who has been granted studio
space in either the Fisher Studio Art Center or the UBS Exhibition Center in
Red Hook will be required to register and participate in all aspects of
Senior Seminar. |
