FALL 2017 - Re-Present: Digital Collage, Montage + Photomontage

SEE EVENT DETAILS
RE-PRESENT: DIGITAL COLLAGE, MONTAGE + PHOTOMONTAGE Joanne Easton
8 sessions >> Wednesdays, September 13–November 1
7:30–10:30 pm, DMS2, $350
No prerequisite.
Collage is a way of looking at and interacting with images and materials that are around us all the time. To manipulate, add to, and assemble images is a revolutionary act and has been used as a way to re-imagine, re-see and re-present images and materials around us, even as a means of political dissent. In this course we will explore collage conceptually and formally while learning Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop. We will develop projects based on your conceptual interests melding hand and digital techniques. This is a studio-based course where most of the time in class will be dedicated to work-time and individual and group discussion. During class there will also be demos and tutorials of the programs and we will spend time looking at contemporary and canonized artists operating in similar contexts.
