Art - McKendree University

Art from McKendree University is a Campus Bachelor Study of Art degree that prepares you for a Art and Design career. Students may earn a Bachelor of Fine Arts Degree with a major in art. Art majors are offered a broad range of courses to prepare them for commercial production in design, layout, illustration and photography, as well as preparation for teaching and graduate school studies in fine arts. The curriculum in Art is intended to develop an appreciation of how the human creative process can ultimately be translated into a work of art, while providing hands-on experience in the various forms of art with participation in the studio process as a medium. It is also intended to develop a solid understanding of the major developments in Art History and the role of individual artists in influencing significant artistic movements. For art majors the curriculum is geared toward developing functional skills in all primary media, including drawing, painting, printmaking, sculpture, photography, and design. Work in progress, or completed assignments, are subject to critique by the instructor individually or in a class forum. This process provides the students with developmental instruction and comparative information. Work can benefit from both the information derived from comparison and the degree of development between works. Student sensitivities also benefit by involvement in the process to which all artists are subject, and from which constructive benefits, in terms of growth, are achieved. At the end of each semester student works are exhibited at a central location on campus, completing the process of the creative work emerging from the studio to be placed on display.
