The Art curriculum develops in students the necessary knowledge, technical skill, and commitment to work as an artist today. Students develop basic skills as a foundation for artistic expression, and then experiment with non-traditional materials and practices. At Lyon we believe art is about exploring, testing our assumptions and understanding of the past, present, and future. Students participate in regular critiques to accelerate the development of skills and ideas through interaction with faculty and peers in a critical context. The critique system creates an environment that encourages students to try new techniques, solve difficult problems, and push boundaries. Students are challenged to develop the content of their work in conjunction with technical skill. Ultimately, students will develop an artistic voice and have something to say, along with the technical skills necessary to speak. View more details on Lyon College .
