Content
In this capstone unit, students will focus on realising a final artwork or body of artwork for exhibition together with building a thorough knowledge of professional practice elements that relate to making and promoting contemporary art exhibitions. The unit will seek to provide the skills and knowledges required for the production of a professional outcome while at the same time focusing on the key career and industry contexts into which artists aspire. A principal focus is on how to plan an exhibition outcome that takes into account concept, process, fabrication, installation and promotion and crucially how each might be achieved over a fixed time frame of eleven weeks. Students will develop a resolved artwork, design a professional digital portfolio and collectively devise, organise and conceive of a promotional strategy for the final exhibition. Key learning tasks will include artistic research, approaches to the integration of multiple disciplines, team management principles, creative methodologies, project development, and pre-production and production management. Students will then apply appropriate strategies and creative management processes in the realisation of their creative work and final exhibition. Building on previous units that stress artistic process and the assorted stages of art making, this production unit requires students to propose and complete a creative arts project that aspires to the standard of emerging artists, cultural producers or educators in their chosen industry contexts.
