All specific student directions, submission dates and syllabus outcomes have been removed and this overview can be used as is.
Across the participating Preliminary HSC classes students will be choosing an object and in their VAPD's (Visual Art Process Diaries) making 20 visual representations that explore extensive media usage. However, as discussed, our class will be taking this in a different direction and re-contextualising / re- interpreting the form, function and material of the chosen object to create exhibitable art in a range of settings. The representation of that object in its various exhibition settings will incorporate the media exploration component of the task.
Bear in mind this document has been created to support the explanation of the task given in class and is in no way designed to be a standalone reference.
The mandatory case study for this project looks at the collaborative works of Claes Oldenburg and Coosje Van Bruggen. See the web link above and the documentary toward the end of this page to refresh your memory. This will also be supported by a case study breakdown @ STAGESIX
Part B _ Research Task
- Compile / construct / create a timeline documenting the 'Object ' in 20th Century Art ( Impressionism to Post Modernism 1874-1996)
- Choose 10 works from your timeline and identify whether the artist has 'referenced', 'represented' or 'utilized' the object
