About

Overview ScultureUndergraduate classes focus on the basic sculptural issues relevant to object making. Core processes include mold making, welding, wood fabrication, casting, and mixed media. More complicated and advanced forms of sculptural investigation such as installation, cross-disciplinary, and new genre investigations are encouraged throughout the curriculum when appropriate. Project assignments are keyed to critical issues of contemporary sculpture in order that the student may gain a working understanding through experience.Through all stages of study, the critique process is central. Individual meetings with instructors and class critiques are the primary means by which critical assessment is made and serve not only to gauge progress, but also to encourage information exchange. Individual research into current approaches and concerns relevant to the discipline of sculpture provide a means by which students may contextualize their efforts and understand that they are part of a larger cultural endeavor. Finally, the thesis component will culminate in the production of a statement and final exhibition, which will provide the basis for further study at the graduate level.Fundamentally, the Art - Sculpture program at Southern Illinois University is defined by an assumption that object making, while not the sole limiting condition of sculptural practice, is still at the core of our discipline. Material, process, and meaning are equally important to those of us who share the desire to make our ideas concrete and our vision real. I want to find another Bachelor Course

As the student progresses through the Art - Sculpture program at Southern Illinois University and begins advanced study, shared studio space is provided. At this point, the successful student will have developed a personal working approach with regard to direction and material.
