Art Portfolio Preparation
Art Portfolio is designed to provide an opportunity to develop a professional portfolio for applying for art college admission and scholarships. Matting and mounting their work, taking photographs, labeling photographs, hanging and cataloging an exhibit will be included. Students will investigate, observe people, places and things, interpreting them through their portfolios. There will be trips to galleries to observe and have conversations with artist, curators and critics. Students will gain ability to analyze and critique their own work, as well as others’ artwork appropriately. They will explore new paradigms in art and writing, using literature, music and theater as a catalyst for writing about and creating art and essays. Homework intensity is roughly 30 minutes/5 nights a week. Prerequisite- A “B” and “S” or better in both semesters of Advanced Art II. Students may also submit a portfolio for consideration as well.
