The six "Synthesis" lectures are designed to provide guidance and inspiration for the "Synthesis Project" a series of 3 ambitious works to be completed by the end of the course (see the assignment description page). The themes for these lectures are: Ground, Synthesis, Process, Concept, Product, and Dialogue. Each lecture expands one theme, demonstrates the diversity of meanings and concepts related to that theme, explains how that theme relates directly to the process of the art student developing a coherent and intelligent voice in their work, and exhibits a number of contemporary artists related to that theme.
You can read each lecture in essay form; there is a separate page for each lecture. At the bottom of each lecture page will be a link to download the power point version of the lecture and to view a video version of the lecture.
Process
Process is a topic dear to my heart....
Part 1: The Process of Ideation- how designers and artists develop their ideas employing both open-process exercises and direct/ linear idea development.
Part 2: The Open Process Studio- how some artists use highly open-process to open their thinking.
Part 3: Process as Content- how some artists transform their process into their subject matter.
Part 4: Your Studio Practice- we all need strategies that help keep us engaged with our studio, with our ideas, and with our work.
But first we need to define some terms...
