Legacy Starts Here is a generative history of the California College of the Arts as relayed through monument, archive and memory. The course explores the rich history of California College of the Arts and the Oakland and San Francisco Campuses through field work, exploring the physical archive, partnering with the library and their collections, interacting with seasoned faculty, exploring contemporary contributions to the art & design canons and finally, examining the ultimate conclusion of a one hundred and twenty year era. Students are asked to respond and contribute to the rich oral, visual, tactile and intellectual histories through contemporary drawing, painting, illustration, animation, sculpture, textile, social and fashion design practices.Upper Division Interdisciplinary Studios extend a student's cross-school experience from Core Studio up into their upper division years. 3 units of Interdisciplinary Studio are required of all majors and must be completed in the junior or senior year. This advanced level studio is thematic in nature. Technical demonstrations are paired with thoughtful readings, seminar discussions and ambitious projects. Collaboration, experimentation and presentation skills are developed in concert with critical thinking.
