Fine Arts Overview

• Fine Arts is a division within the Columbus College of Art and Design. The Division of Fine Arts provides students with the technical, intellectual and practical skills required for success as a fine artist. A broad based sophomore year gives students essential material skills, craftsmanship and basic aesthetic awareness in two-dimensional and three-dimensional applications. Progressive seminar classes that focus on contemporary art criticism, theory and professional studio practice along with classes in philosophy, psychology and art history help to guide students from assigned projects to the creation of more individual and self-expressive objects and images in their junior and senior years. The Fine Arts Division expects that students not only flourish intellectually and artistically, but also to be well prepared to meet the professional responsibilities that a successful art career demands.
