AS Fine Art Exam: Transformation
HALF TERM HOMEWORK
Three strands / starting points...tips
Each idea must be supported by a link to an artist and your own drawings. Look through the power point, the exam paper and also the links below to help you. Having said this, you can choose to build on any of the processes and themes visited during the set tasks above.
Many Art Teachers and AS Art students have made Pinterest 'boards' to support them in establishing their ideas in response to the exam title. Click on the screen grab of these below and delve deeper....
Project Expectations
Ensure that you have satisfied the following Assessment Objectives tasks by the end of the project:
AO1 - DEVELOP
Make sure all set tasks are completed. By the end of the project, we would like you to have analysed three images by artists relevant to your ideas using the Form, Process, Content structure we followed during the Marc Quinn analysis task within the last project. Use your research to inform your development. A good response does not mean an exact copy.
AO2 - EXPERIMENT
In order to show a good range of experimentation, start by taking 3 sets of different observations in response to 3 ideas based on your research. It is important to show refinement of ideas and techniques throughout the project. Make sure annotation considers subject, concept, approach, technique, formal elements etc as appropriate.
AO3 - RECORD
Remember that we are looking for a good technical and compositional understanding in your work, along with a clear explanation of ideas. This is where you can gain marks for your control of media. You can also gain marks for research and collecting of resources however, only collect what you need to move on practically.
AO4 - REALISE
Develop and refine your best ideas further working towards an exhibition outcome, which will be completed during your examination period (10-hours) at the beginning of the Summer Term.
