One introductory level studio and two advanced level studios are required to complete this cluster. The introductory level studio courses address the basic principles of visual organization, fundamental technical instruction, the importance of writing, and the discursive elements of art evaluation. The advanced level courses provide opportunities to gain a broad and mature understanding of art production and its possibilities as a tool of research and investigation. Advanced level studio courses maintain prerequisites. Introductory level courses are not open to seniors. Enrollment in a cluster does not guarantee enrollment in a course.
