Photography courses are offered within the Visual Arts (BA)<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n

We all know the expression “A picture is worth a thousand words.” Indeed, few modes of communication are more powerful than photography in conveying meaning to life, defining purpose, documenting behavior and affecting human response. For all of this and more, photography is a tool and an art form that both engages as well as captivates us.<\/p>\n

Students are exposed to the full range of photographic techniques \u2013 both analog and digital \u2013 from 35 mm and 8 x 10 imaging, to the use of electronic software with color management and output. Non-traditional photography techniques (platinum\/palladium printing, cyanotype, Woodburytype, etc.), using computer-generated or wet negatives, are also explored.<\/p>\n

Photography at Montclair is studied as an art form unto itself, as well as a tool for commercial purposes. The wide range of courses gives students great freedom and opportunity to develop individual interests, with expert guidance from an esteemed faculty.<\/p>\n

Internationally recognized instructors, guest speakers and workshop presenters have been inspirational to our students and have included renowned professionals such as Mac Adams, Zeke Berman, Peter Bunnel, A.D. Coleman, Gregory Crewdson, Larry Fink, Emmet Gowin, Ralph Gibson, Ed Kashi, Duane Michals, Andrea Modica, Laurie Novak, Sylvia Plachy, Susan Sontag, Jan Staller, Jerry Uelsman, and William Wegman.<\/p>\n
