Class 12_Homework_March 1st

Dear Class
Today I introduced the individual maker segment of the course. For homework we will be conducting research, collecting the works and words of living and well known contemporary artists, to study and dissect why artists make what they make as I showed you in the example for class [Damien Hirst]. In addition, you have been tasked with creating a composition using a developed guiding principle and visual vocabulary to try your hand at expressing something written as something visual. I look forward to seeing what innovative work you come up with!

Today I gave you a calendar for dates. Please be sure to always check your calendar dates against blog dates. If you have questions or see anything irregular be sure to contact me immediately. I make mistakes at times.
Sincerely,
Professor Urrutia
