Introductory Ceramics Ron Nagle This course is an investigation into various visual and conceptual issues related to ceramics. There are two assignments with an additional concurrent third project. These explore a range of creative and technical problems particular to the ceramic idiom. Grading will be based on attendance, creativity, content of ideas, positive attitude, class participation and ability to use techniques and materials demonstrated in class. Other grading components are completion of bisquing, glazing, firing, individual and group critiques as scheduled, and the final studio clean up. Attendance is mandatory for the full duration of class meetings and is a component of your final grade. Class size limit is fifteen and the class is closed after the first meeting. PROJECTS Project 1: Objects suggested by other students will be chosen at random. Begin by making a list of the characteristics of your chosen object. Then exaggerate, distort, deform, alter, or eliminate formal elements of your chosen object. The following is a list of formal elements to begin thinking about: rough/smooth, soft/hard, bright/dull, small/large, thick/thin, hollow/solid, simple/complex. For example, what was once a three dimensional mass could now be a flat shape or open space. What was once small could now be large (enlarged to a minimum of 18 inches). The end result should have little or no resemblance to the original object. Project 2: Make a literal object of objects and place them in a context from another source not usually associated with the object(s). Possible sources could be from imagination, dreams, literature, music, jokes, song titled (Canary in a Coalmine, Blood and Roses, American Pie), mixed metaphors (You can lead a horse to water but a pencil must be lead, The chances of a camel getting through the eye of a needle…) and puns. This assignment is not abstract. Although it is not literal, it is narrative in nature. The minimum size is 18 inches. Concurrent Project- some options to consider Political or social statement or commentary. Create a sculpture with captures the essence of a non-noun word. Self-portrait. This can be metaphorical, abstract, conceptual, etc… Sculptural vessels or wheel work. This requires a minimum of 10 finished pieces. Environmental or installation piece. This can be created in an environment, making a piece that is about a sense of an environment or place. It can be a site-specific sculpture. Creative appropriation or emulation of a non-visual artist. Repeat the first assignment in greater depth. Other interpretations of the first and second projects.
