Course code – J171

Fine Art - Overview

Fine Art is defined here as the practice of creating work that is primarily for aesthetic, intellectual or purely conceptual purposes, rather than purposes that have a necessarily practical function.

• Learners must explore, acquire and develop skills, knowledge and understanding through the application of techniques and processes specific to their chosen area(s) of study of Fine Art.
• Learners must explore practical and relevant critical and contextual sources such as the work of historical and contemporary fine artists and the different purposes, intentions and functions of fine art as appropriate to their own work.
• Learners must demonstrate the knowledge, skills and understanding through area(s) of study relevant to Fine Art

Areas of Study

Learners are required to work in one or more area(s) of Fine Art, such as those listed below. Combinations of these areas are also possible:

• Drawing
• Installation
• Lens-/Light-based Media
• Mixed-media
• Land art
• Printing
• Painting
• Sculpture

Component 1 – Portfolio - (60%)

This is completed from September in year 10 until January in year 11.

Students produce a portfolio of practical work showing their personal response to a set starting point, brief, scenario or stimulus. The portfolio may be presented in appropriate formats for the specification title they are following and chosen area of study, including sketchbooks, digital presentations, mounted sheets, maquettes, prototypes, animated work, scale models or illustrated written work.

The portfolio must provide evidence that the student has met all four assessment objectives.

Component 2 – Externally Set Task (EST) – (40%)

This is from January in year 11 until the 10 hour exam.

Students respond to one of five themes, each with a range of written and visual starting points and stimuli. Students research, plan and develop ideas for their response to the option they have chosen, which they must then realise within the ten-hour supervised time period.

Assessment Objectives

There are four Assessment Objectives in OCR GCSE (9–1) in Art and Design. These are detailed in the table below.

Curriculum Period 1 

Mock exam/final coursework project

Lesson Order

Lessons follow a logical order in which work is developed based upon a theme. Each student will be working on personal projects and will be working on different pieces of work based on their own ideas.

Artist Research - Selecting an artist and creating work in response to their work, this includes a background, images, titles, written evaluations and a copy/study of the work of the chosen artist.

Observations - Work created based on the chosen theme, inspired by the artist. This could include a range of techniques but must include drawing and photography. Drawing could be done in any media and must be appropriate to the chosen idea.

Development of Ideas - combining artist influence and observations, considering media experiments and exploration. Considering composition ideas.

Final Piece Planning - planning the final piece including scale and media, work must link to artist research and be a direct result of the development of ideas.

Assessment

Students will complete a 300 minute practical assessment in which they will create a final outcome for the project using their own images and their own choice of media.

Curriculum Period 2 Externally Set Task

Assessment

Students will complete a 10 hour controlled test which adheres to JCQ guidelines. Students work independently on a piece of work which they have planned and prepared for over the Externally Set Task period, this follows the process as outlined above with the addition of initial ideas to start the project
