  • Theory

THEORY

  • Art history – is the study of art in the context in which it was made.
  • Art criticism – is the study of art in the context of the viewer.

  • major completed art works
  • support material, including a journal and preliminary drawings/works
  • a minimum of one (1) research project – minimum of 1,500 words (or equivalent in another negotiated format) that relates to the student’s work and may include influential artists, styles or techniques
  • a minimum of four (4) internally assessed written assignments – approx. 500 – 700 words, equally balanced between research and criticism. At least one (1) of the four (4) assignments must be non-essay based.
