L2 Visual Art

L2ARPA

Visual Art Level 2  

The Visual Arts constitute a wide range of fields, including sculpture, painting, printmaking, photography, design, electronic media and film, and the history of art. Students become increasingly literate in the Visual Arts as they learn from example and practise ways of working and explore and reflect on the conceptual, perceptual and practical processes of two-dimensional, three dimensional and time-based art.

Following is an overview of senior school art working within the NCEA program.

At Level 2 students can choose to study either painting or printmaking or a combination of both. Level 2 students can work in greater depth in painting and/ or printmaking. The emphasis is on developing Creative Thinking through practical work based around their own topic.
