Theatre Royal Exhibition
Pupils from CCHS Art Department were invited to exhibit a range of art work at Wakefield Theatre Royal based upon the theme of 'wishes'. The work formed part of the Wakefield Art Walk a prestigious event which showcases the talents of both professional and amateur artists in a series of venues throughout the city. 30,000 members of the public visited the Theatre over the Christmas period and comments on our Learners' work included, 'Excellent work, better than the professionals' and 'Enjoyed the art work, very impressed with your talent'.
Art Exhibition
On Wednesday 13th July the Art and Technology Departments held a display of KS4 work. On display were the portfolios of Year 11 learners who had been entered for GCSE Art, GCSE Art Textiles, BTEC Art and GCSE Technology Graphics Design. Below are photographs of some of the work on display including the research work carried out by the candidates.
Stop the Clock Day
On Stop the Clock Day the Art Department worked with a group of learners who used everyday rubbish to produce city silhouettes. They needed to consider shape and light to get the right effects. Some even were innovative enough to punch holes in boxes to give the illusion of windows!
At the end of the sideshow below there are also three scrap collages inspired by the work of Van Gogh, Picasso and Frieda Khalo.
Artist of the Month
The slide show below consists of learners' work that has made them either Artist of the Week or Artist of the Month.
GCSE Art Exhibition
The Art department recently held an exhibition of the work that Year 11 learners had produced towards their GCSE portfolios. Here is a selection og photographs of the learners' work and some of the artists themselves.
