ART 425 BFA Art Capstone Preparation

This course trains students in selected, advanced theoretical perspectives and research practices as preparation for their final capstone project. It helps students reflect upon and apply knowledge and skills learned throughout their education at UT (in their major and in Spartan Studies) and serves as the first part of a required sequence for BFA students. Students explore important historical and contemporary debates as well as artistic exempla that intersect with and can inform their own developing artistic practice. Regular instruction, faculty mentorship, and practical exercises establish proficiency in multiple genres of artistic and scholarly writing. The course contributes credits toward the Spartan Studies Culminating Experience requirement.
