POWERPOINT PRESENTATIONS
Concise, easy-to-follow visual presentations, with text and images to reinforce the basic concepts of art and architecture.
- Architecture Basics: The 15 slides of examples and explanations illustrate the specific function of the different types of buildings and how these functions reflect in their design.
- Art Elements and Design Principles – Buildings: This 13-slide presentation explores how architects use art elements and design principles to create visually pleasing or memorable buildings. The same methodology of “fact, justify and opinion”, introduced in Term 2, is used to analyse two iconic buildings.
- The Role of Artists in Society: An 11-slide presentation removes the worry about discussing this complex topic in class, covering aspects such as how art records history and the world around us, and how social commentary is made through art.
