During the workshop, students will explore new technical methods while refining their areas of expertise. Students

work should not only demonstrate a command of one's craft but in some manner incorporate the overall cultural
experience as well. In addition, students will work on a collaborative art project with the guest artist faculty
member and also will show their work in an exhibition at the end of the summer.
Based at TUJ’ s campus in Tokyo, the workshop offers students ample opportunity to participate in one of the
world's most progressive and culturally stimulating cities. Students of visual mediums will find Japan an
amalgamation of stoic, ancient ways and cutting edge style. Weekly faculty-led field trips in and around Tokyo to
culturally important centers such as museums, galleries and artist studios expose students to traditional Japanese
culture as well as contemporary Japanese art and design.
Students will also hear and meet some of Japan's talented artists through guest lectures and workshops. Previous
guest lecturers include Greg Davis, photographer; Yutaka Fukuoka, sound creator artist / musician; Keiji Ito, art
director, graphic designer, UFG; Toru Yamanaka, music composer / founding member of Dumb Type; Takashi
Mochizuki, photographer; Eric Cruz, creative director, Wieden + Kennedy Tokyo; Sei Hishikawa, art director,
drawing and manual; Hiroharu Mori, contemporary artist / video artist; Kyota Takahashi, comtemporary artist; Shin
Sasaki, art director, 3KG, D&DEPARTMENT SAPPORO; and Ai Akiyama, contemporary artist / painter, Installation Art.
Advanced level students looking to be challenged technically and intellectually are especially encouraged to
apply. Past students have noted that time management and organizational skills are vital for the successful
completion of the workshop. Students will create their own work schedules, presenting their work-in-progress
each week either for group critiques to the entire class or one-on-one with the instructor. Preparatory reading will
be required of all students. It is also suggested that students prepare themselves by learning some basic Japanese
vocabulary and investigating Tokyo through on-line research or by purchasing a guidebook and a phrasebook.
COURSESProgram participants will enroll in two courses, for a total of nine or ten credits.
For the first course, all students will enroll in :
