ARTS 4903 BFA Thesis Portfolio
This course provides senior BFA students in the Art Department with practical and intensive experience in the development of a portfolio of creative work, preparation for exhibition of their work, and exposure to professional practices for artists. This includes the development of new and significant artwork for the Senior Thesis Portfolio and a BFA Thesis Paper providing insight into the student’s visual research. Students will explore media relevant to their particular needs and reflect on the connections between their work and contemporary art and culture through readings, discussions, and critiques. Emphasis is placed on developing strategies of productive self-criticality to inform their work both during and beyond the thesis semester. This course is part of a 2-semester sequence, with ARTS 4901 & 4902, that serve as the capstone to a B.F.A. degree and culminates in the exhibition of thesis portfolio work at the Eide/Dalrymple Gallery.
