OVERVIEW
 |
| Chair: Gerry Perrino |
An accredited member of the National Association of Schools of Art
and Design, Salve Regina's art department promotes smaller classes that
foster intimate dialogue between students and faculty. The curriculum
stresses knowledge of art and culture, understanding of visual elements
and their many complex interactions, and a sound technical background
from which creative responses may be elicited.
Studio courses develop the intellectual and physical skills necessary
to solve complex visual problems. Courses for non-majors provide an
opportunity for students to understand their cultural heritage by becoming
aware of how and why people have made art. Students are exposed to various
artists, different historical periods, and the many complex interactions
of art and society.
