STANDARD 1.4     (CRITIQUE) ALL STUDENTS WILL DEVELOP, APPLY AND REFLECT UPON KNOWLEDGE OF THE PROCESS OF CRITIQUE.

 

Descriptive Statement:  Through the informed criticism of works of art, students will develop a process by which they will observe, describe, analyze, interpret and evaluate artistic expression and quality in both their own artistic creation and in the work of others.  Through this critical process, students will arrive at informed judgments of the relative artistic and aesthetic merits of the work examined.
