INT-151: Analysis of Form

This figure-drawing course will begin with a brief investigation of form in its conventional sense, plastic, three-dimensional volumes expressed convincingly through two-dimensions. The remainder of the course will explore form as a governing principle, as a basis for decision-making in graphic expression. Through an examination of Realism, Classicalism, the Baroque, and Expressionism students will be able to apply their three-dimensional knowledge of the figure to more sophisticated graphic ideas such as abstraction, simplification, organization, unity, and style.
