Overview

The Art - Sculpture BFA program offered at Arizona State University recognizes the broad, transdisciplinary nature of sculpture today. A wide range of media now falls within an expanded definition of sculpture.

Coursework covers public and site-specific sculpture, foundry, interactive and electronic sculpture, neon, small metals, wood, and video and sound installation. Students learn to put today's creations in the context of the history of sculpture and the larger field of contemporary art. Critical inquiry is augmented by courses in the art history program. Visiting artists, curators and critics share their experience directly with students.

Through one-on-one mentoring, students learn to win commissions and awards, hold exhibitions, and obtain residencies and jobs as studio artists, public artists, fabricators, project managers, teachers and arts administrators.
