版画艺术学士学位

作为版画系的学生，您将获得技术和美学指导，并学习发展成为版画艺术家所需的批判性思维技能。您将在各种美术印刷媒体中创作作品，以发展出独特的视野和专业的方法。版画是绘画的延伸，因此，绘画和构图技巧与版画技巧一起得到了发展。您将学习主要技术的基础知识，并且必须精通光刻和蚀刻。在程序中的所有媒体中都教授了黑白和彩色处理。还鼓励您继续学习版画课程的其他领域，例如浮雕，单色，凸版印刷和书本艺术。审美理解是通过工作室项目发展而来的，从而导致更高层次的自我指导工作。
As a student in the Department of Printmaking, you will receive the technical and aesthetic instruction and learn the critical-thinking skills necessary to develop as a working print artist. Printmaking is an extension of drawing, thus, drawing and compositional skills are developed along with those of printmaking. You will learn the basics of the major techniques and must achieve mastery in lithography and etching. Black-and-white and color processes are taught in all media within the program. You are also encouraged to pursue other areas of the printmaking curriculum, such as relief, monotype, letterpress printing, and book arts. The work will lead to your senior exhibition and help prepare you for graduate school or a career in printmaking and the arts. Lectures, demonstrations, and workshops with well-known visiting artists and master printers further enhance the curriculum, including the annual Hartford Print Workshop. This workshop brings in artists who work with students and master printers to create editioned prints in the HAS printmaking studios.
