Yale University School of Art: Art537b

537b, The Figure
C220 Green Hall Wednesday 2:00 – 5:00

As its many resurgences testify, the depiction of the human figure remains a contested and precarious enterprise. Through a series of structured studio projects, readings and discussions, this seminar will investigate figuration’s contemporary prospects. We will assess examples by a range of recent painters, and look at connections to related fields especially comics, advertising, and theater. Meets biweekly for 1.5 credits: 1/11, 1/25, 2/8, 2/22, 3/21, 4/4. Alexi Worth.
