ANALYSIS AND INTERPRETATION

A student shall demonstrate the "ability" to:

#1 Select criteria for evaluating visual art works;

#2 Analyze and interpret visual art through its historical, cultural, or social context;

#3 Support personal reactions to visual art works using the components of visual arts; and

#4 Articulate informed evaluations of visual art works using selected criteria.

A student shall demonstrate an "understanding" of:

#1 How a synthesis of the components of visual arts is used to define a work in visual art:

a. elements, including color, line, shape, form, texture, and space;

b. principles (for example, repetition, contrast, or balance);

c. vocabulary;

d. styles (for example, abstract or impressionist);

e. structures (for example, two dimensional or three dimensional); and

f. technical skills (for example, selecting and using tools and techniques of the medium);

#2 The similarities and differences among the structures and styles within visual arts;

#3 How the selection of criteria affects criticism of a work in visual arts; and

#4 The connections between visual arts and other disciplines outside the arts (for example, mathematics, science, or history).

CREATION AND PERFORMANCE

A student shall demonstrate the "ability" to:

#1 Use artistic processes to create a single, complex work or multiple works in visual arts;

#2 Generate and clarify artistic intent for work is visual art;

#3 Make decisions based on artistic intent;

#4 Make choices based on analysis of audience and occasion for work in visual art; and

#5 Revise visual art work using multiple sources of critique and feedback.

A student shall demonstrate an "understanding" of:

#1 The integration of components of visual arts:

a. elements, including color, line, shape, form, texture, and space;

b. principles (for example, repetition, contrast, or balance);

c. vocabulary;

d. styles (for example, abstract or impressionist);

e. structures (for example, two dimensional or three dimensional); and

f. technical skills (for example, selecting and using tools and techniques of the medium); and

#2 The cultural, historical, or social contexts that influence creation of visual art.
