Term 2 Week 6, 2011

It's our last week of manic Mannerism and 3.5, Investigate an art issue.

By now, you have established your issue and have organised the works for you exhibition.
Remember your submission can be in a number of forms - power point, picture catalogue, written essay, detailed poster, a model of your art gallery etc etc. Just ensure each assessable task is clearly labelled and well organised - refer to your Task Sheet ( Student Instructions), or check with your teacher. Check out your art works at major galleries (online) and see how they do it and write the captions on the artists.
Here are some other tips:
  • Add all sites, film & youtube clips, books and handouts to your bibliography as you go
  • Use 'headers' and 'footers' to label your images correctly ( if you can, avoid hand writing your name on beautifully printed picture pages)
  • Use quotes to help support your arguments/ point of view
  • Context info ( the history) will help you to expand your issue for Merit and judge it's importance
  • Examine the different points of view and have a reason for your opinion for Excellence
  • Introduce new evidence or information to strengthen your case in Task 3 , also for Excellence
Also coming up this week - comparisons between the major players in the High Renaissance and Mannerist era. Use your CSI skills to compare/ contrast:
All this work will make you experts in this 1520 - 1600 period of erotic confusion.
Next week we ricochet through time and space to arrive in 20th Century NZ.
