History of Art/Critical and Contextual Studies - A Level

UPDATED 20160929 10:32:29

The History of Art examines changing values in all fields of visual culture, including painting, sculpture, graphics, photography, architecture, film, the mass media, and forms of popular expression. It emphasizes visual as well as verbal and written literacy. We study Art from the Renaissance to Impressionism, Pop Art through to current, contemporary practise. Students produce a series of sketch book, essays and personal studies. They also take part in presentations of their work. They must present a 'personal portfolio' and take an externally set assignment of 8 hours to produce their final presentation.
