This course focuses on experimentation as a means to investigate the possibilities available to a contemporary painter. Representational and non-representational approaches will continue to be explored, with emphasis on the development of the student's own research interests. Critical readings, in-class discussions and gallery visits help position their research within the discourse. Paintings will be analyzed with attention to semiotic theory in order to examine the production and interpretation of meaning.
