About Studio Arts:

​The Studio Arts BA Program is a sequential curricular structure organized to provide undergraduate art students with a strong foundation in studio skills: drawing, painting, sculpture, analog photography, digital photography and video. The three current SART full-time faculty members - assistant professors Daniele Genadry, Heather O'Brien and professor Walid Sadek - while trained and skilled in studio techniques, do not espouse a conventional approach to the deployment of these techniques nor do they promote in their teaching a fidelity to the traditions of art. Rather, they all teach through the lenses of their own current practices in which past, present and future of art are constantly being recomposed in dynamic constellations. The SART BA Program encourages a dynamical recalling of art from within current concerns and develops in students an ability to employ a large array of knowledge and skills with a readiness to open up towards post-studio art practices.
