This course is a study of light and its visual and conceptual expression utilizing primarily black and white materials. Assignments explore form, composition, and the construction of image. Students learn camera operation, principles of exposure, and printing in black and white. There is also a photo history component each week that covers a range of thematic issues from the 19th century to present day and requires a midterm and final paper.

Students are required to have a 35mm camera that can operate in manual mode and to supply film and paper.
