Art
We aim to develop visual literacy so that we can appreciate the rich diversity of art and design within our world.
The art and design curriculum at Avanti Fields provides students with the knowledge, understanding, application and experience of the formal elements and principles so that they can create expressive and meaningful pieces with increasing confidence and progress. Students will explore a range of media and techniques and develop practical, critical and creative thinking skills. Students learn about works of art, craft and design, applying their knowledge to inform their own creative practice. They are encouraged to form and express their opinions and preferences about historical and contemporary art. Contemporary art pieces are loaned from Creative Learning Services to ensure students engage with real pieces of art in situ.
The curriculum aims to foster positive and ambitious attitudes toward art and design, to understand it’s place in our world and its potential to enrich people’s lives. It strives to develop students’ confidence in their creative ability to respond to the rapidly changing world, including how art and design can shape and influence the social, cultural and political future of communities.
