(same as ENV_SC 4051; cross-leveled with ART_VS 7051, ART_VS 7810). This course explores environmental art as it emerged in contemporary art practice in the 1960’s and 70’s to the ways in which artists work within and engage the environment in diverse art forms today from site-responsive sculpture to eco-activism. Course content will be delivered through short presentations, video viewings, readings and practicum exercises that will build the foundation knowledge leading to the creation of an on-site environmental art project students will work on over the course of the semester.
