CH30.1
Appraise current trends and emerging practices to determine how artists produce and embed knowledge within work.
Indicators for this outcome
(a) Explore inventive contemporary art (e.g., maker and hacker cultures, game design, video culture, interactive art, land art) to formulate personal definition of art and understand its purposes.
(b) Study cultural and historical themes in art (e.g., equality, politics, family, poverty, gender) to learn how artists contextualize or re-contextualize content.
(c) Examine how art uses non-verbal visual language to embed knowledge (e.g., traditional First and Métis ways of knowing, world cultures, historical artifacts) and apply to own work.
(d) Investigate how art that persuades and/or protests is used to affect beliefs (e.g., propaganda, advertising, film, folk art).
(e) Analyze methodologies used by artists as researchers and apply to own inquiry.
(f) Investigate examples of interdisciplinary work involving arts and non-arts fields.
(g) Examine art as a social critique and means of promoting global understanding.
(h) Reflect and identify how the production and consumption of artistic knowledge can positively impact health and well-being.
(i) Discuss aesthetic knowledge in art and principles of universal beauty (e.g., golden ratio).
