You should provide evidence that all of the four Assessment Objectives have been addressed. It is anticipated that A2 candidates will show in the Externally Set Assignment how their knowledge, skills and understanding have developed through their work in Unit 3. The Assessment Objectives require you to: Develop your ideas through sustained and focused investigations informed by contextual and other sources, demonstrating analytical and critical understanding. Experiment with and select appropriate resources, media, materials, techniques and processes, reviewing and refining your ideas as your work develops. Record in visual and/or other forms ideas, observations and insights relevant to your intentions, demonstrating your ability to reflect on your work and progress. Present a personal, informed and meaningful response demonstrating critical understanding, realising intentions and, where appropriate, making connections between visual, oral or other elements. 2 P40697A Preparatory Studies Your preparatory studies may include sketchbooks, notebooks, worksheets, design sheets, large-scale rough studies, samples, swatches, test pieces, maquettes, digital material… everything that fully shows your progress towards your outcomes. Preparatory studies should show: • your development of a personal focus based on the theme • a synthesis of ideas • evidence of your development and control of visual language skills • critical review and reflection, recording your thoughts, decisions and development of ideas • the breadth and depth of your research from appropriate primary and contextual sources • relevant selection with visual and/or written analyses rather than descriptive copying or listing processes. Timed Examination Your preparatory studies will be used to produce an outcome(s) under examination conditions in twelve hours. 3 P40697A Turn over The Theme: Combinations and Alliances Throughout history certain combinations and alliances have created extremely powerful and occasionally dangerous liaisons. Aside from the great art movements, the art community has seen many individual examples such as Michelangelo and Pope Clement VII, Caravaggio and Cardinal Francesco Maria del Monte, Van Gogh and Paul Gauguin, Rodin and Rose Beuret, Gilbert and George, Anthony Green and Mary Cozens-Walker, Diego Rivera and Frida Kahlo, Charles Saatchi and the Young British Artists, to name but a few. Each of these partnerships resulted in the production of some remarkable works of art. Still-life painters have always recognised that combinations of certain objects create dynamic visual effects, with the arrangement and choice of the subjects being crucial to the success of the final work. The genre reached a zenith in Holland in the 17th century with skulls, dead animals and shrivelled leaves being carefully juxtaposed with living plants, flowers and sumptuous fruit. These compositions exaggerated and emphasised the individual qualities of each object, as well as metaphorically commenting on the fragility of human existence. Architects also recognise the strength of certain combinations, humanising vast concrete structures with the inclusion of living organic forms. The contemporary architects Patrick Blanc and Edouard Francois are pioneering new ways of creating ‘growing walls’ to achieve this. Many artists have a particular attachment to a technique or particular piece of equipment. Henri Cartier Bresson was inseparable from his Leica 35 mm camera and this alliance produced some of the most remarkable and sensitive photographs of the 20th century. It could be said that his intimate knowledge of the device was in part responsible for the success of the images. Wild plants and animals have formed unlikely alliances with urban environments. Any suburb, back garden, park or canal towpath will demonstrate the tenacity of nature to reclaim the tarmac and concrete, as neglected cracks and rough surfaces provide nutrients for tiny plants and lichens. Right in the heart of major cities wild peregrines nest on office blocks and towers, adapting to the new environments; they co-exist with feral pigeons and foxes that thrive on the litter from fast food outlets. Here are some further suggestions generated by the theme that might inspire your journey. • Cars/drivers, horses/jockeys, sheepdogs/shepherds • Cross-pollination, courtship displays, photosynthesis, symbiosis • Clubs, meetings, fairs, markets, sports • Fashion, advertising, bill posters • Seagulls/rubbish tips, foxes/towns, swifts/eaves • Road works/traffic lights, commuters/trains • Cogs/gears, pulleys/cables, toys/batteries • Snow/sledges, beach/sandcastles, graffiti/dereliction • Egg/cress, fish/chips, spring/clean • Relationships, communities • Religions, politics • Boats/water, kites/wind, music/orchestras 4 P40697A Fine Art Optional disciplines: • Painting and drawing • Printmaking • Sculpture • Alternative media Optional starting points: • Physical collisions, whether intentional or accidental, can provide artists with spectacular visual reference material. Objects, people and landscapes have all provided the subject matter and the interpretation of them has utilised many different mediums. War artists such as Peter Howson, Maggi Hambling, Howard Brodie, Vasily Vereshchagin, John Singer Sargent and Graham Sutherland documented the devastation created by armed conflict. The shipwreck of the frigate Medusa in 1816 provided a rich source of inspiration for the artist Theodore Gericault. Sea of Ice by Caspar David Friedrich exploits the incredible forms created by masses of sea ice colliding. Contemporary artist Tom McGrath has used crashed cars as subject matter in paintings such as Wreck 2. • In many portraits the negative space surrounding the subject contributes as much to the impact as the model. The combination of environment and subject creating powerful dynamics within the composition frequently give insight into the character of the sitter and artist through the inclusion of metaphorical artefacts. The Spanish artist Diego Velásquez was a master of the use of negative space with portraits such as Las Meninas, exploiting the composition to provide a wealth of narrative information. Occasionally, an artist such as Ken Howard will intentionally overpower his model with the environment giving glimpses of their intimacy and the unique light in the studio. • Site-specific sculpture relies on the combination of the specific characteristics of the environment, working in contrast or harmony with the piece itself. Recently, sculptors have been asked to consider religious buildings, such as cathedrals, as gallery spaces. Whilst there has been no specific requirement that the spiritual nature of the site influences the work, many naturally do so. Artists are asked to consider the physical aspects of the sites and construct or place works sympathetic to those spaces. The Crucible exhibition held in 2010 in Gloucester Cathedral resulted in considerable critical acclaim fuelling further interest in the potential of such venues. • Artists have always been interested in, and intrigued by, the optical effects of colour and how these can be exploited in their works. Certain combinations of colour can create illusions altering the perception of the painting or sculpture. The Op art movement explored these concepts in their purest form with painters

  • Conservation Management Plan for the National Theatre Haworth Tompkins
    Conservation Management Plan For The National Theatre Final Draft December 2008 Haworth Tompkins Conservation Management Plan for the National Theatre Final Draft - December 2008 Haworth Tompkins Ltd 19-20 Great Sutton Street London EC1V 0DR Front Cover: Haworth Tompkins Ltd 2008 Theatre Square entrance, winter - HTL 2008 Foreword When, in December 2007, Time Out magazine celebrated the National Theatre as one of the seven wonders of London, a significant moment in the rising popularity of the building had occurred. Over the decades since its opening in 1976, Denys Lasdun’s building, listed Grade II* in 1994. has come to be seen as a London landmark, and a favourite of theatre-goers. The building has served the NT company well. The innovations of its founders and architect – the ampleness of the foyers, the idea that theatre doesn’t start or finish with the rise and fall of the curtain – have been triumphantly borne out. With its Southbank neighbours to the west of Waterloo Bridge, the NT was an early inhabitant of an area that, thirty years later, has become one of the world’s major cultural quarters. The river walk from the Eye to the Design Museum now teems with life - and, as they pass the National, we do our best to encourage them in. The Travelex £10 seasons and now Sunday opening bear out the theatre’s 1976 slogan, “The New National Theatre is Yours”. Greatly helped by the Arts Council, the NT has looked after the building, with a major refurbishment in the nineties, and a yearly spend of some £2million on fabric, infrastructure and equipment.

  • The Rhetoric of Masculinity and Machismo in the Telugu Film Industry
    TAMING OF THE SHREW: THE RHETORIC OF MASCULINITY AND MACHISMO IN THE TELUGU FILM INDUSTRY By Vishnupriya Bhandaram Submitted to Central European University Department of Sociology and Social Anthropology In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Supervisors: Vlad Naumescu Dorit Geva CEU eTD Collection Budapest, Hungary 2015 Abstract Common phrases around the discussion of the Telugu Film Industry are that it is sexist and male-centric. This thesis expounds upon the making and meaning of masculinity in the Telugu Film Industry. This thesis identifies and examines the various intangible mechanisms, processes and ideologies that legitimise gender inequality in the industry. By extending the framework of the inequality regimes in the workplace (Acker 2006), gendered organisation theory (Williams et. al 2012) to an informal and creative industry, this thesis establishes the cyclical perpetuation (Bourdieu 2001) of a gender order. Specifically, this research identifies the various ideologies (such as caste and tradition), habituated audiences, and portrayals of ideal masculinity as part of a feedback loop that abet, reify and reproduce gender inequality. CEU eTD Collection i Acknowledgements “It is not that there is no difference between men and women; it is how much difference that difference makes, and how we choose to frame it.” Siri Hustvedt, The Summer Without Men At the outset, I would like to thank my friends old and new, who patiently listened to my rants, fulminations and insecurities; and for being agreeable towards the unreasonable demands that I made of them in the weeks running up to the completion of this document.

  • 'Death of a Salesman' by Arthur Miller
    ‘Death of a Salesman’ by Arthur Miller - A2 Revision Booklet Name: ___________________ Plot Summary Death of a Salesman takes place in and around the Brooklyn house of Willy Loman, a salesman who has traveled for more than 30 years up and down the New England coast. The action is confined within a 24- hour period, from Monday night to late Tuesday evening, much of it reflecting the tragic turmoil of Willy’s mind. A requiem concludes the play, an epilogue at the funeral of the salesman. The story is told through a complex montage of scenes interlocking the present with past events - memories, imagined moments, and flashbacks from the life of Willy Loman. At 63, Willy Loman, a traveling salesman all his life, is becoming increasingly worried about his ability to make ends meet. Although his house is nearly paid for, and his sons are on their own, lately each sales trip is more exhausting and less satisfying. He feels drained and is losing his grip on his own existence: “I’m tired to the death” he tells his wife, Linda. Their older son, Biff, estranged from his father for years, has moved away and has been drifting across the country: “I’ve had twenty or thirty different jobs since I left home before the war.” Happy, his younger brother, stayed in New York and has his own place. He works in a warehouse and pursues his dream: ”My own apartment, a car, and plenty of women.” For the moment the two brothers are back home, visiting their parents. From the bedroom they used to share as boys, they overhear their parents and also talk about their own lives.

  • Scenography International ISSUE 1 – NEW DEPARTURES Patent No 1771 Gordon Craig and 'Improvements in Stage Scenery', 1910.1 Ch
    ISSUE 1 – NEW DEPARTURES Patent No 1771 Gordon Craig and 'Improvements in Stage Scenery', 1910.1 Christopher Baugh, Gavin Carver and Cat Fergusson for KIDDS.2 Within a context where computing power has assisted the theatrical industry in finding ways to commodify and replicate the scenography of performance, the trade union, Equity, and the Society of British Theatre Designers have quite properly concerned themselves in recent years with issues concerning the copyright status of designers' work. But to articulate the identity, originality and ownership of a scenographic concept through the legal route of patent protection would be considered an inappropriate, if not bizarre, idea. It is a common impression of Gordon Craig that he was secretive, almost to the point of paranoia, about theft by other designers and directors of his ideas. It may be, therefore, that his quest for ownership of his ideas through legal channels confirms this view. Many have tried to account for the work of Craig through an understanding of his psychology - none more thoroughly than the famous chapter by Simonson that dismisses his work.3 It is not our aim to attempt a re-appraisal of Craig's state of mind when he sought this action, but the historical context should not be overlooked. Craig was just 38 years old when he submitted his patent application. He was at the height of his artistic power, and was close to achieving the recognition, and opportunities for the implementation and consolidation of his ideas that he sought. In addition to seminal writing, two of the most important 'art' theatres of Europe (in Moscow and in Dublin) were actively seeking his collaboration; his radical vision was being recognised internationally and, through exhibitions, his name would begin to be linked with that of Adolphe Appia as theatrical co-founder of scenographic modernism.
