Major Pro Seminar- Visual & Public Art 300 |
| The Major Pro Seminar is a learning experience for juniors and seniors majoring in the Visual and Public Arts Program (VPA). This course will provide you with the information and skills that will enable you to fulfill the specific major learning outcomes for this program. Additionally, we will be exploring opportunities in the field of visual and public art through a combination of learning experiences, presentations by visiting professionals in the field, hands-on creative projects, contemporary theoretical writings, case studies, and assignments. Projects will use both individual and collaborative working methodologies. Emphasis will be placed on understanding the philosophy of public art and its place in the contemporary visual arts field. The class will work together as a student cohort and with Professor Johnson to develop individual learning plans that will guide students in assessing past coursework from other colleges and choosing future learning experiences at California State University Monterey Bay (CSUMB). Throughout the semester students will be encouraged to examine their own cultural heritages and beliefs as they formulate and refine their intellectual and ethical points of view regarding contemporary issues such as; ethnicity, class, gender, age, sexual orientation, and disabilities. | |
