Studio Arts Exhibition Catalogues 2016-17
Fall 2016 鈥� Winter 2017The design and production of an exhibition catalogue is a learning activity within the Studio Arts Integrating Activity course. The Comprehensive Assessment takes place in this course for the students registered in the Studio Arts Profile.
The catalogue will contain the works created in the Studio Arts Integrating Activity course and the comments of each student. Each student works on a self-directed project during the semester. The student draws on subject matter already explored in the program to create his (her) project, making links with previous explorations of materials, processes, techniques and concepts.
The production of a catalogue containing images of their artworks and chosen quotes increases student motivation, personal worth and confidence. The students learn to respect each other鈥檚 opinions and become accountable of their decisions during the process.

Fall 2016 Catalogue
The students in the Integrating Activity course 聽designed and produced a catalogue for their exhibition: UDOU. It was a learning activity within the Studio Arts Integrating Activity course.聽The catalogue promotes the works created by 9 students in one Studio Arts Integrating Activity course (511-499-DW). Two pages were allocated to each student. They contain a portrait, an artist鈥檚 statement and an image of their work. Each student worked on a self-directed project during the semester.The catalogue was the result of a semester of collaborative work between the students. The planning of the catalogue began week 4; the students met regularly in their common studio space to share and discuss the planning of their exhibition and the production of their catalogue.One student, Margaret Beaumont-Savvas planned and designed the final catalogue. It was her idea to take pictures of students in their class studio, holding a large sheet of paper on which she pasted their signatures. She created the double pages for the students from the visual material gathered and the statements from the students. Another student Benjamin Vidmar conceived the cover page, which also became the poster and the e-invite. Emmanuel Akintade took the pictures of the artworks and of the students working in class; these became the candids at the end of the catalogue.聽Studio Arts F2016 Catalogue.
