The Metals area at SMFA focuses on the direct study of sculptural processes and all that occurs in the visual language of three-dimensional art. Courses offer an in-depth study of the technical and aesthetic development of metals.
You will develop professional skills through hands-on work, technical demonstrations and critiques and exploration of traditional and contemporary metals. Weekly events include critiques, demonstrations, field trips and presentations by artists.
The Metal shop offers individual bench facilities, a forging and metalsmithing area, new gravity and centrifugal casting equipment, a lapidary, polishing equipment and enameling facilities.
For more information on the Metals area, contact Fritz Buehner.
