About
How materials and processes shape appearance and meaning: drawing, painting (fresco, oil, tempera, etc.), sculpture (carving, casting, modeling), architecture/basics of structure, printmaking, photography, and selected global techniques (e.g., ceramics, textiles, metalwork). Emphasizes impact of process on form, as in AP Art History and survey texts.
Goal
