VISUAL ARTS Philosophy Art is essential in a complete education. Students engage in art production, art history, art criticism and aesthetics to broaden their understanding of self and community, to place the arts in an historical and cultural context, and to experience the arts as a universal form of human expression and communication. Guiding Principles The art curriculum: • emphasizes the development of students’ skills and understanding of creating and responding; • teaches the language inherent in the four disciplines: art production, art history, art criticism, aesthetics; • enables students to apply imagination and rational thinking to the making of art; • enables students to invent and explore multiple solutions to a problem; • enables students to understand the value of reflection and critical judgment in creative work; • promote knowledge and understanding of visual culture; • facilitates positive peer interaction, including giving, receiving and using feedback; • encourages self-motivation to create and problem-solve; • encourages appreciation of how knowledge learned in the arts is integral to understanding the world; • fosters positive attitudes toward art and opinions of other artists; • promotes students to use a variety of assessment methods for self reflection; • promotes life long learning and introduces career possibilities in the arts; • promotes first hand art experiences which may include visits to art museums, galleries, and interacting with practicing artists. 84
