In many ways, this decade laid the foundations for society today: from celebrity culture to democratic claims made by some for the internet. This in-depth study offers students the chance to discover the extraordinary creations of this most recent period in world art history. By surveying the works, trends and styles of art across two key countries, students will enjoy the opportunity of exploring the impact and effects of change in the visual with a detailed understanding of the context of the era.\u003Cbr>Scope of works |\n| --- |\n| The specification makes clear the requirements for the detailed study of at least\u003Cbr>18 works of art and architecture across nine categories of work in Britain and the USA. All examination questions will refer to the Scope of works and Key topics explained on pages 29–31 in the specification. The specification clearly lists the expected coverage and detail for all key works and this is therefore not further elaborated on in this topic guide.\u003Cbr>In this Period, works of art are designated by the birthplace and nationality of the artist rather than by the place of production. This avoids confusion for artists like Kelly and Warhol, both of whom worked in both countries for extended periods in the course of their careers. Teachers should be mindful that work by artists of other nationalities working in the USA or Britain is not valid for this study. However, all work by British and American artists may be included, even if it was produced for orin another country, for example Chris Ofili’s Trinidadian works or projects created for the Venice Biennale.\u003Cbr>As part of this study, all students must explore at least one work of art representative of Pop Art, Conceptual Art, Minimalism and YBAs and at least one work of architecture demonstrating the aims and characteristics of Brutalism, PostModernism, High-Tech and Deconstructivism.\u003Cbr>Key topics |\n\nThese Key topics are clearly explained in the specification and elaborate on what should be taught around each work and are now set out in a tabular format.  \nAll examination questions will refer to the Scope of works and Key topics explained on pages 29-31 in the specification and are added here for reference.  \n\n| Subjects, forms and styles\u003Cbr>Works to be studied* |  |\n| --- | --- |\n| Scope of works | (a) Portraits (in any medium) by British and American artists. |\n|  | (b) The object in 3D by British and American artists. |\n|  | (c) Non-objective (or abstract) work (in any medium) by British and American artists. |\n|  | (d) Figurative work (in any medium) by British and American artists. |\n|  | (e) Performance or video work by British and American artists. |\n|  | (f) Installation works by British and American artists. |\n|  | (g) Land or earth art by British and American artists. |\n|  | (h) Commercial or public architecture by British and American architects. |\n|  | (i) Domestic architecture by British and American architects. |\n|  | *Categories (a)–(g) must include at least one work in each of the following style","cbCaieFQej89lcU9","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaieFQej89lcU9","pdf",345854,22,"English","# Introduction\n# Scope of works\n# Key topics\n## Key topics What students need to learn\n# Specified artists\n# Selecting your key works\n# Critical texts\n# Organising your teaching\n# Assessment\n# Resources","[{\"question\":\"What does the C5 topic focus on?\",\"answer\":\"It focuses on Pop life: British and American contemporary art and architecture from 1960–2015, linking works to changes in culture, politics, technology, and visual style.\"},{\"question\":\"How many works and categories are required for the detailed study?\",\"answer\":\"The guide states that the specification requires detailed study of at least 18 works of art and architecture across nine categories in Britain and the USA.\"},{\"question\":\"How are the key topics used in examination questions?\",\"answer\":\"All examination questions refer to the Scope of works and Key topics explained in the specification, and this guide provides the key topics in a tabular format for reference.\"}]","Topic Guide C5 - Pop life: British and American contemporary art and architecture (1960–2015) - A level History of Art | PDF",1792473129,55]
