Sculpture

The Sculpture Area enables students to develop proficiency in fundamental sculptural materials and techniques, including woodworking, metal working, mold-making and casting, and some digital fabrication. Doing and thinking, hands-on learning and the construction of meaning, are emphasized in equal measure; haptic engagement and the construction of metaphor permeate every sculpture class.

Sculpture Graduate Studies

Sculpture is one of six areas of study offered in the M.F.A. art program. This area enables graduate students to develop proficiency in various analog and/or digital fabrication processes, materials, and techniques. The Sculpture Area’s basis is the exploration of three-dimensional contemporary expression where questions about context and culture at large inform every sculpture candidate’s studies. No matter the medium or method, the aim is to explore, strengthen, and focus each student's sense of personal direction in the arts.

Sculpture faculty Rodney McMillian and Hirsch Perlman serve as the primary advisors to students admitted to this area of study. Students may also work with faculty from other areas within the Department of Art or other departments across the university.

All M.F.A. students are offered the use of off-campus individual studios in the UCLA Margo Leavin Graduate Art Studios, located in Culver City. In addition to individual studio spaces, the studio building houses photography, sculpture, ceramics, and computer labs, as well as open spaces for exhibitions, lectures, and group critiques. Although the Department of Art does not offer graduate-level courses in the summer, the graduate studios are open year round.
