Year+7

Year 7 VA

 In our Visual Arts classes this year, we will be focusing on our understanding, history and making in Visual Arts. We will explore how Art serves as a form of intellectual activity. Emphasis will be placed on acquiring the basic knowledge in visual elements and design principles to solving visual problems. Through training in aesthetic and creative thinking, we will be able to produce creative yet artistic artworks. We will learn the media of //drawing, ceramic//, and the //elements in Visual Arts//. We will understand the concepts and learn the skills and techniques by practising. Besides, we will also learn the vocabularies in Visual Arts. We will learn the attitudes and methods of art appreciation and criticism such as perception, description, analysis, interpretation and comments. These visual vocabularies help us to depict our ideas and appreciate our artworks.

 We will explore the following important disciplines so as to develop the ability in learning Visual Arts:  - ** Art History ** (by acquiring knowledge about the contributions artists and art make to the culture and society)  - ** Art Appreciation ** (by understanding how people justify judgement about art objectives)  - ** Art Production ** (by making art)  - ** Art Criticism ** (by responding to and making judgements about the properties and qualities that exist in visual forms)   = UNITS OF THE YEAR =   **For details please click on this link**
