Comparative Study Template for 1000 Word Essay IB Visual Art 2016

Introduction of selected art, 3 different art work, objects or artifacts from at least two different artists in different cultures:

The artworks, objects or artifacts and their contexts:

• analysis of the cultural contexts of the selected pieces

• identification of the formal qualities of the selected pieces (elements such as shape/form, space, tone, colour, line, texture

and principles such as balance, rhythm, proportion, emphasis, pattern, variety)

• interpretation of the function and purpose of the selected pieces (such as the meanings of motifs, signs and symbols used

in the work)

• evaluation of the material, conceptual and cultural significance of the pieces and the cultural contexts in which they were

created.

Making connections:

comparisons of the different pieces, clearly identifying links between them. These comparisons might include:

• comparing the cultural contexts of the selected pieces

• comparing the formal qualities of the selected pieces

• comparing the function and purpose of the selected pieces

• comparing the material, conceptual and cultural significance of the pieces.

Reflect on Research Outcomes and how your art pieces have been influenced by this, objects, artifacts and their creators. These

influences and personal connections, which should be evidenced in both visual and written forms, might include:

• cultural context

• formal qualities

• function and purpose

• materials, conceptual and cultural significance.

Sources

Students include a list of sources used during the study.

Academic honesty

Every image used within the comparative study must be appropriately referenced to acknowledge the title, artist, date (where this

information is known) and the source, following the protocol of the referencing style chosen by the school. When HL students include any

images of their own original work, these must also be identified and acknowledged in the same way. Candidate
