4 semester hoursUndergraduateLectureNUpath EIusually offered: fall, springtypical days: TBostonTraditional

Explores how process informs concept and vice versa, with a focus on making and photographic practice. Emphasizes creative projects, readings on contemporary photography, and the responses and presentations on the ideas brought forth by our investigations. Constructive critiques, which include investigation of the nuances of the medium and its uses, encourage confidence of creative abilities, vision, and independent thinking. Students use photographic concepts and creative techniques for the development, coordination, and completion of a final photographic body of work. Considers the politics of representation and contextual references and seeks to answer: Who is it of? Who is it for? What does it do? Who does it serve? This is an intermediate photography seminar.
