Introduction to Photography (4.341) and Photography and Related Media (4.343) are workshop-centered courses in the Visual Arts Program. They combine practical instruction, readings, lectures, field trips, visiting artists and group discussions intended to foster an aesthetic appreciation of photography/ digital imaging, and a critical awareness of how images in our culture are produced and constructed. A student-initiated term project provides opportunities to develop technical skills as well as for personal exploration. Projects are continuously presented in a critical forum.
The images below are samples of student work from the course. All images are courtesy of the student named and are used with permission.
