* 2 ArtsXpose are due at midterm, 2 are due at final. Not accepted late. *
ArtsXpose Learning Goals:
1. To familiarize students with local arts venues, resources and events.
2. To facilitate students’ critical awareness and their abilities to make meaningful connections between the various forms, media and formats found in theater, film, dance, literature and the visual arts.
3. To promote students’ active participation in the Art & Art History Department, Bucknell University, and the local art community.
Events that fulfill the ArtsXpose requirement include:
- Visiting artist’s lectures
- Exhibitions
- Plays (college or professional NOT high school productions)
- Films that are part of a university department sponsored film series (NOT films at commercial multiplexes)
- Musical recitals or performances
- Poetry/literary readings
- Attendance of art club meetings (clubs may only count as one event regardless of the number of club memberships or the number of meetings attended during a term)
- Arts related symposia, discussions or reading groups
- Arts related conferences
- Art events, demos, or workshops that are non-course related
- Arts related fieldtrips (The Department of Art & Art History is taking a bus trip to New York City sometime this semester, and students are strongly encouraged to attend this trip as it will be a great opportunity to observe cutting edge contemporary artwork. Attending this trip will count as two artsXpose assignments, and students in attendance will not be required to submit any documentation.)
Instructions for submitting ArtsXpose:
All ArtsXpose assignments will be submitted on the class website, but you can choose to either submit a photograph of yourself at the event, OR a detailed textual response to the event.
