Course Description
Building on competencies developed in STDO 1210 Drawing: Studio 1, students integrate individual research with methods and materials of contemporary drawing. Prerequisite for further study in fine arts studio courses. May not be held with STDO 1200 (054.120). Prerequisite: STDO 1210.
Course Objectives/Outcomes
The purpose of this course will review and expand upon key concepts and competencies used in contemporary drawing practice. Course outcomes encourage the development of traditional materials and experimental (contemporary) approaches across a broad range of concerns, including but not limited to visualization, composition, materiality, the subject, expression, concept and content.
This entire course will also emphasize the exploration of current ideas and aesthetic concerns; cultural and personal concepts; and analytical and intuitive creative approaches with an emphasis on creative, visually literate, conceptually informed and innovative self – expression. This course will also give greater emphasis on broadening thematic content (conceptual thinking), aesthetics and materials in relation to contemporary ideas. Emphasis will also be placed on drawing as a process that conveys ideas integrating formal and conceptual content. This course and other 1st year courses here at the School of Art are preparation for intermediate and senior studio courses.
Note Taking and Participation: Note taking will be required as part of the participation for this course. Students should be prepared with a small sketchbook for note taking for each class as well as during individual critiques with instructor and during group critiques with peers.

Instructional Methods
In addition to the process of drawing, this course’s structure allows for individual and class discussions (individual and group critiques) that assist in forming the direction of the studio work. As well the ongoing dialogue between the instructor, the individual student and the class is developed to create a sense of community. Discussions will address problems of interpretation, methods of representation, materials, scale, historical and contemporary aesthetic issues, etc., and will provide the opportunity for dialogue concerning the conceptual basis of the work. Conversational English will be required for this course. Data projector presentations, demonstrations and field trips may be scheduled periodically to enhance the above concerns.
Often this drawing course starts with an input at the beginning of class, students are required to be in class on time and attendance is compulsory. All absences during class, late arrivals and early departures are recorded every day.
Making provisions for an open mind is essential for this course. An open and curious mind in many ways is linked to a student’s ability to apply criticism and to thoroughly research each assignment. Research methods for this School of Art course include independently locating and reading non-art and art related books and other texts, and investigating within the studio class various art processes and art practices. The goal of these research methods is to expand and diversify knowledge via the innovative synthesis of written/verbal ideas with visual art making processes.
As well an open and curious mind is linked to expanding ideas and processes throughout the course. Overall in this course students are always expected to analyze their work in progress and develop numerous intuitive and analytical processes that ultimately expand their own understanding of various - philosophies. More importantly this philosophical expansion is interrelated to broadening each students’ comprehensions regarding the philosophical purpose or functions of art (beyond conventional “pretty” or “cool” pictures) For the entire course students do not have to agree with certain philosophies or ideologies. However, as a part of any assignment’s objectives this course always expects the synthesis of thorough research and comprehension of a philosophy and that this synthesis is ultimately communicated clearly by the work in a critical, unique, and sophisticated manner.
Students are expected to integrate the potential breadth of new knowledge received in the course with their personal ideas and interpretations. Individual critical discussions of works in progress with the instructor occur continuously throughout both terms. Utilizing criticism and dialogue with instructor and peers, and researching terminologies are essential for developing the studio work, verbal terminology and formal (visual) vocabulary in relation to concepts. Throughout the course students will focus on pursuing personalized innovative drawing processes in relation to late 20th Century and current ideas (21st Century contemporary art). These processes include a variety of materials that will emphasize thematic/metaphorical, and technological and conceptual applications. Hand-made drawings processes are emphasized on various 2D surfaces and occasionally assignments will focus on drawing in relation to digital media, 3D, and/or time based media.

E-mail
University communications will only be sent to a student’s U of M account. The full policy is available at umanitoba.ca/governance.
It is mandatory that all students maintain and regularly monitor a University of Manitoba email account. Critical information from the registrar, instructors, and the School of Art will be relayed to you through the Web mail, Jump, UM Learn, and Aurora electronic notification systems.
To get your free U of M account visit: http://umanitoba.ca/computing/ist/accounts/claimid.html. For more information, visit: http://umanitoba.ca/computing/ist/.
Students without personal computers can use computers in Information Services and Technology labs in a variety of locations on campus including the Dafoe Library. More information is available in your orientation package or by calling IST at 474-8600. It is your sole responsibility to continually monitor your class site(s) for information such as class announcements and email correspondence.
Class Attendance Policy
Regular attendance is expected of all students in all courses. Letters of warning may be issued for unexcused absences of three classes in one term reminding the student of academic consequences of not attending classes. Students who do not attend or submit assignments but do not withdraw will receive a final grade of F.
Plagiarism and Cheating Policy
To plagiarize is to take ideas or words of another person and pass them off as one’s own. In short, it is stealing something intangible rather than an object. Obviously, it is not necessary to state the source of well-known or easily verifiable facts, but students are expected to acknowledge the sources of ideas and expressions they use in their written work, whether quoted directly or paraphrased. This applies to diagrams, statistical tables and the like, as well as to written material, and materials or information from Internet sources. To provide adequate and correct documentation is not only an indication of academic honesty but is also a courtesy that enables the reader to consult these sources with ease. Failure to do so constitutes plagiarism. It will also be considered plagiarism and/or cheating if a student submits a term paper written in whole or in part by someone other than him/herself, or copies an answer or answers of another student in any test, examination, or take-home assignment. Plagiarism or any other form of cheating in examinations, or term tests (i.e. crib notes) is subject to serious academic penalty (i.e. suspension or expulsion from the faculty or university). A student found guilty of contributing to cheating in examinations or term assignments is also subject to serious academic penalty.
Similarly, to copy parts, or to reproduce everything from an artist’s individual artwork and pass them off as one’s own is also considered a form of plagiarism. When completing assignments or presenting work done in self-directed studio art projects, students should avoid this practice, since it is expected that you will originate the ‘look’ or ‘style’ of the work from your own responses to the subject or ideas in question. To do otherwise, through the knowing use of printed or internet reproductions of published artist’s work, would be academically dishonest, except in cases where making a direct copy was a requirement of the assignment by an instructor, or that an idea required such a response. In those cases, it is clear as to the intent to copy and is a public aspect of the meaning of the work.

Appeals
Students wishing to appeal a grade given for term work are expected to discuss matters relating to the grading of that work with their instructor first, as an attempt to resolve the issue without the need to submit a formal appeal.
For further information on grade appeals, please go to the Appeals Policies, Procedures and Regulations on the School of Art website at: umanitoba.ca/schools/art/media/UG_Policies_GradeAppeals2012.pdf

At the School of Art, numerous required and elective courses contain content that includes working from the nude model and some language, imagery, or dialogue that may offend students. In particular, the School of Art provides comprehensive art training that requires use of the nude model in some courses. In viewing and discussing works of art, the School of Art encourages the broadest possible tolerance consistent with Canadian law.
Material and Process Restrictions
Flammables, poisons, potentially bio-hazardous materials, aerosol sprays, and high-temperature processes are strictly prohibited in the School of Art classrooms, adjoining hallways, and the vicinity of the ARTlab. The instructor must be consulted before any materials or processes not on the class materials list are used. If there is any doubt as to the safety of work to be undertaken, work must be halted until the instructor has been consulted.
