The CS is one of the<a href="visualarts/go/16175"> 3 assessed components</a> required by the Visual Arts Curriculum and it constitutes 20% of the final mark. It is basically a comparative, analytic investigation with visual and written content. It will be presented as a PDF and viewed by examiners on computer screens; bear this in mind and present accordingly ( landscape format recommended)</p><div class="greyBg"><p><strong><em>The CS is not an extended essay, </em></strong><strong><em>it is an independent critical and contextual investigation of 3 or more artworks from differing cultural contexts</em></strong></p></div><h4>What exactly IS required for the CS?</h4><p>SL 10-15 slides<br />HL 10-15 slides + 3-5 slides which analyze the extent to which their work has been influenced by the art and artists examined.<br />The screens submitted examine and compare at least <strong>three artworks </strong>( and 3 is sufficient)<strong> </strong>at least<strong> two</strong> of these artworks are <strong>by different artists.</strong><br />The work selected for comparison should come from <strong>contrasting contexts</strong> (local, national, international and/or intercultural). Ideally students should see one of the works firsthand.<br />Acknowledge sources and provide an additional sources page ( word doc)</p><div class="blueBg"><h4>Number of Art Works?</h4><p>Make sure to compare at least <strong>3 artworks by at least 2 artists!</strong> It is fine to use only these 3 artworks by 2 artists, or 3 by three different artists- no need to exceed the minimum requirement unless you have other works that are relevant that you really want to compare. Try not to include too many artworks or the CS will lose its focus and become unwieldy...</p></div><h4>The role of the Visual Journal in the CS</h4><p>The <a href="visualarts/page/16911/visual-journal" title="Overview » New Visual Arts Curriculum » Visual Journal">Visual Journal</a> can be used to collect a large part of the students visual and written experimentation and investigations.</p><ul><li>Use the Journal to specifically document the CS research and responses to each piece.</li><li>Include detailed interpretations, evaluations, and comparisons.</li><li>Select and adapt from these pages for the CS</li></ul><div class="pinkBg"><h3><em><strong><em><strong>HL students</strong></em></strong></em></h3><p><em><em>HL students are required to include 3-5 extra screens that </em></em> <a href="visualarts/page/25699/cs-hl-connections-" title="Course Design » The 3 Course Components » The Comparative Study » CS, HL Connections ">discuss the relationship </a><em><em>of the chosen artworks in the study with thier own devleoping work.
