Mark Webber, M.F.A.* *Part-time Goals The programs in Art are designed to help students attain full development as creative persons through the integration of art studies with the total concept of a liberal arts education. It is through the creative, aesthetic dimension of human intelligence that greatness in culture is born. The human person communicates this dimension through the process of art. The artist, in his/her quest for a common abstraction or "truth" in nature and in humanity, functions to challenge and set standards of excellence in all aspects of human endeavor. Through critical awareness and understanding of the physical world and its relationship to social, ethical and economic conditions, the art student begins this quest. Artistic (creative) potential lies, often dormant, within every person from any cultural background or educational exposure. Once released, this powerful communication form reveals each individual's cohesive relationship to the world in all its diversity and enables the artist as a more "fully developed" person to foster quality in, and respect for, life. By virtue of its diversity art applauds differences as well as similarities. It is also through this dimension that spiritual insights, social awareness and dedication to personal, responsible communication develop and are expressed. As an active participant in the mission and philosophy of Marywood University, the goals of the Department of Art include preparation of individuals experienced in diverse creative processes through the various art media. Students are involved intensely in self-discovery, self-evaluation, artistic research (affective and cognitive) and professional presentation of products. As a result, the art student develops a sense of responsibility, empathy and professionalism which then should be reflected, upon graduation, by commitment and involvement as a professional in the larger community. It is this growing sense of responsibility for quality communication balanced with creativity that will enrich future generations. The programs are designed to: provide comprehensive quality education in studio art and design so that students attain a measurable degree of technical skill and proficiency; prepare students to challenge themselves and others creatively and to continue that process into the future; raise art students' consciousness of creative activity throughout the entire university curriculum and enable them to value the richness of such creative processes; facilitate an appreciation for and recognition of the importance of past and present aesthetic and cultural values; expose students to a broad range of creative attitudes, illustrating the diversity of creative thinking and processes within a perspective of global concerns. Programs Specifically, the Art Programs prepare students for specialized study in graduate school as well as for careers in the arts. The Bachelor of Fine Arts degree is the initial professional degree in Studio Art and Design. Its curricular goal is the development of persons with technical skills, conceptual abilities and artistic sensitivity to the past, present and future role of art in addressing the needs of humankind. Within the Department of Art at at Marywood, two Bachelor of Fine Arts Programs are offered: 1) Bachelor of Fine Arts in Design with areas of emphasis in Graphic Design, Photography, Illustration and Interior Architecture/Design, and 2) Bachelor of Fine Arts in Studio Art, two-dimensional, with areas of emphasis in Painting, Ceramics and Sculpture. The Bachelor of Arts degree is a liberal arts degree that provides professional preparation for the art educator or arts administrator. The curricular goal of the Art Education Program is the development of future teachers competent in studio art, art history, aesthetics and art criticism. The student's ability to assess the relationships of the arts to human experience and to transmit this awareness within the educational milieu will contribute to the awakening of a world vision. Within the Department of Art at Marywood, the Bachelor of Arts Program in Art Education leads to K-12 certification. The Art Therapy program will offer the student introductory, foundation studies in art therapy combined with studio courses. The program will integrate the arts and psychology with attention to social, spiritual and cultural dimensions, providing a solid base for graduate study in art therapy. The Bachelor of Arts Program in Arts Administration, a cooperative program with the Business, Music and Communication Arts Departments, prepares students for advanced study and for a variety of positions in organizations concerned with artistic presentations. During their course of study, students will be expected to maintain a QPA of 2.50 in their major. Periodically, they will submit examples of their work for faculty review and evaluation. Prior to graduation, Art majors present public exhibitions of their work in the Mahady Gallery. The art programs at Marywood University involve an integration of the liberal arts component and an in-depth curriculum of professional studies. Accreditation The Department of Art at Marywood University is accredited by the National Association of Schools of Art and Design (NASAD). This association was established in 1944 for the purpose of improving educational practices and helping to maintain high professional standards in art and design education. Included in the membership are outstanding independent schools, universities and colleges that teach art and design. These institutions have proven, through their membership and activity in the Association, their deep interest in fostering high standards for art and design education. Through its annual meeting, NASAD provides a national forum for discussion of the broadest considerations involving the education of the artist and designer. The National Association of Schools of Art and Design is the only national professional accrediting agency for educational institutions in the visual arts recognized by the Commission on Recognition of Postsecondary Accreditation and the United States Department of Education. Special Features Art Study Abroad Because success in the field of visual art depends not only on technical expertise, but on breadth of experience and depth of insight, the Marywood Department of Art encourages all students to experience first hand the global nature of our cultural tradition. Through a variety of options, students may study for a semester, a summer session or a shorter study tour in Italy, France, Scotland or Australia. The centerpiece of our study abroad program is Marywood's Italian Campus for outstanding art students at Studio Art Centers International (SACI) in the heart of Florence, Italy. Through the Marywood/SACI Program, students may apply to study in Florence for a semester or a summer session and may choose from a full curriculum of offerings. This program also includes organized field trips to many important locations throughout Italy. All courses are taught in English, and the program is geared toward an easy assimilation of Italian culture.   Visiting Artists Program Throughout the year, the Visiting Artists Program enables the art student and the Marywood community to participate with numerous guest artists in their creative processes by lecture/demonstrations and exhibits. In the past, Marywood has been visited by many artists and craftpersons, including fabric artists, wood workers, metalsmiths, sculptors, painters, photographers, potters, graphic designers, illustrators and others.   Art Galleries Located in the Visual Arts Center, the Marywood University Art Galleries provide the Marywood community and northeastern Pennsylvania with noteworthy cultural events. All exhibitions, receptions and accompanying events are free of charge and open to the public. Handicapped accessible, both galleries have weekday, evening and weekend hours.   Mahady Gallery Throughout the year, the Mahady Gallery offers a varied program of group and solo shows by visiting artists, juried regional competitions, Marywood art faculty, and curated national exhibits. The gallery also presents graduate and undergraduate group exhibits in fulfillment of degree requirements. Featured exhibitions are accompanied by artist's slide lectures, gallery talks, workshops or demonstrations.   Suraci Gallery The Suraci Gallery maintains Marywood's permanent collection of fine and decorative arts. The Asian Collection consists of paintings, furniture, ivories, tapestries and ceramics. Bronze and marble sculpture, furniture and paintings make up the nineteenth Century Collection. In addition, European ceramics, glass and other decorative arts are displayed. Feature exhibitions highlighted throughout the year show-case regional artists, selections from the permanent collection and recent work by the art faculty.   Fieldwork Experience Fieldwork experience gives the student firsthand knowledge of job opportunities, equipment and skills necessary to be creative and productive in the professional world. Art Education students complete a pre-professional phase of observation of grades K-12 for 100 hours, prior to their experience in student teaching. For certification, each Art Education major is assigned as a student teacher for one semester (12 credits), usually in two placements representative of the content and levels of the certification involved. Bachelor of Fine Arts in Design majors with emphasis in Graphic Design, Photography and Interior Architecture/Design must earn at least three credits of professional fieldwork experience. The Bachelor of Fine Arts in Studio Art offers the option of fieldwork with artists and organizations pertinent to future pursuits. Typically, students are placed in studios representative of the content of the major professional area: printing, graphics or photographic studios; newspapers; graphic design companies; interior design studios, departments and companies; museums and architectural firms. The Bachelor of Arts Program in Arts Administration provides professional training and fieldwork experience for those who have an appreciation for the arts and an aptitude for management.BA Art Therapy students participate in a 90 hour internship that exposes students to the use of art in service to others.
