ART 3814 Art + Environment
Art + Environment focuses on Marin County and the greater bay area. Course emphasizes the importance of thinking critically about our place in the world and one’s own relationship to a real, living environment. Students create visual diary about place and produce site-specific artwork. The "ART + " series addresses specific issues impacting the local community and ways to harness the power of visual art to generate engagement and dialogue — particularly in communities of color and immigrant and low-income populations—around these issues. Coursework will emphasize both group and individual art making strategies, and can be taken by non-art majors. This course only satisfies the CORE requirement when offered as a service learning course.
