Photography at Bennington offers students an introduction to both analog and digital camera work. Courses cover a broad range of topics, exploring photography’s history from the 19th, 20th, and 21st centuries, and investigating all genres of the medium, as well as how it combines with other artistic practices. Studio photography classes are designed to mix creative production with relevant readings, historical research, and technical hands-on instruction.
At Bennington, you design your own course of study and work, taking full advantage of the College’s resources both inside and outside the classroom. This process goes beyond the bounds of a traditional major. You identify one or more areas of interest that spark your intellectual curiosity and provide a foundation for your academic work and fieldwork, and you pursue that work with ongoing guidance from your faculty. This is your Plan.
