Introduction to Photography (4.341) and Photography and Related Media (4.343) are workshop-centered courses in the Visual Arts Program at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. They combine practical instruction, readings, lectures, field trips, visiting artists and group discussions intended to foster an aesthetic appreciation of photography/ digital imaging, and a critical awareness of how images in our culture are produced and constructed. A student-initiated term project provides opportunities to develop technical skills as well as for personal exploration. Projects are continuously presented in a critical forum.
