"What is art research?"

A common question we often answer here the Office of Undergraduate Research (OUR). Carrie Fonder, assistant professor in UWF’s Department of Art, and Barbara Larson, Department of Art chair and professor and their 12 student-mentees can help answer that question as written in the latest article by the UWF newsroom with an article titled, "UWF public sculpture class works tell stores, transform campus." The article outlines how the students took on the challenge to design, execute, and install art installations at the UWF campus. Read the article and view the photographs that outline the research and work completed by the students and mentors. The Office of Undergraduate Research supported the art students with OUR Project awards. To learn more about project awards, art research, or how we can help with your research endeavors, please contact an OUR staff member or email us.
