Advanced Art & Studio Advanced Art
The Advanced Art course will provide the students with the opportunity to explore visual self-expression in a variety of two-dimensional and three-dimensional drawing, painting, printmaking, and sculpture media. The students will build upon their knowledge of the Art elements and principles while developing advanced level approaches to creating artwork.
Students will continue to critically examine prevalent artists and artistic periods throughout the centuries and how artwork reflected the society in which it was created. Students will also continue to learn how to talk about and evaluate works of art, including their own. College and/or career preparation will be explored. An AP portfolio may also be prepared as part of this course in Drawing or Two-Dimensional Design or Three-Dimensional Design. NOTE: The Advanced Art and Studio Advanced Art courses can be taken in any order.
Studio Advanced Art is an eighteen-week course that will be designed to meet the needs of any high school student who plans to major in Art in college or Art school, and is committed to the preparation of an Advanced Placement Studio Art Portfolio. Emphasis will be placed on demonstrating how the arts can shape and reflect ideas, issues or themes in society, while determining and evaluating how tools/technologies and processes combine to convey meaning. Continued focus will be on using the elements of art (Line, Shape, Form, Value, Texture, Space, and Color) and the principles of art (balance, rhythm, contrast, movement, emphasis, pattern, and unity) to organize and convey meaning in a work of art. NOTE: The Advanced Art and Studio Advanced Art courses can be taken in any order.
