Lecture: Light as Art

Hap Tivey鈥檚 lecture addresses light as a medium for creating art: 1960 through 2020.听 It begins with artists who used light in their sculpture and extends into the current use of light as projections, such as video. Like so many explorations into artistic mediums, what began with a small group of artists has become a common almost universal medium of decoration.

Workshop Option 1: Some video techniques for artists

Hap will discuss software applications for creating and editing video for artists. This workshop will rely primarily on Adobe Photoshop for generating images. Students may join the process of making images and video if they have access to individual computers and Adobe software. If students are primarily observing, this group could be up to 25, but it is difficult to manage practical outcomes for more than fifteen students. The group can be a mixture of observers and participants.

Workshop Option 2: Some imaging techniques graphic novels

Hap will discuss software applications for creating graphic novels. This workshop will rely primarily on Adobe Photoshop for generating images. Students may join the process of making images and structuring text, if they have access to individual computers and Adobe software. If students are primarily observing, this group could be up to 25, but it is difficult to manage practical outcomes for more than fifteen students. The group can be a mixture of observers and participants.
