Syllabus for AP Studio Art: 2D, 3D and Drawing
The AP Studio Art portfolios are designed for students who are
seriously interested in the practical experience of art. AP Studio Art is
not based on a written exam; instead, students submit portfolios for
evaluation in May. Each student will choose between three portfolios
— 2-D Design, 3-D Design and Drawing — corresponding to common
college foundation courses. This course addresses three major
concerns that are constants in the teaching of art: (1) the student’s
ability to recognize quality in her or his work; (2) the student’s
concentration on a sustained investigation of a particular visual interest
or problem; and (3) a range of approaches to the formal, technical and
expressive means of the artist. AP work should reflect these three
areas of concern: quality (selected works), concentration (sustained
investigation) and breadth (range of approaches).
