THE BORING BIT The outcomes that we teach use a structure called the FRAMES, The frames — subjective, cultural, structural and postmodern — give meaning and are the instrument for generating different understandings of the function of and relationships between the artist – artwork – world – audience. SUBJECTIVE: Is feelings and emotions, audience response CULTURAL: Ideas and Beliefs, Time and Place, context, gender, race, background, religion, Year STRUCTURAL: Signs and Symbols, description of the work, size, materials used, colour, texture, form POST MODERN: New technology, challenging conventions, pluralism, irony, humour, pastiche and appropriation
