Some of the below information was obtained from thinkib.net
Curatorial Rationale: (400 words max)
It
is similar to an artist statement, but refers specifically to the work
selected for the exhibition rather than the general artistic output.
Students explain their choices of artworks and the decision making
around how they are presented. Students reflect on how they found solutions to issues in the selection, arrangement and presentation of the works. Writing
the Rationale is part of the process of self- reflection, decision
making, and of understanding of the relationship between artist and
audience.
(digital format, as a pdf. or docx.)
- Briefly describing his or her artistic growth and development throughout the course.
- He or she should illustrate these insights with specific examples related to studio work and the visual journal.

Comparative Study: 10-15 screens (20% of test)
(all digital, jpg., word docx. , pdf., ppt. )
- An independent critical and contextual investigation that explores artworks, objects and artifacts from differing cultural contexts.
- It is an investigative comparison that should strike a balance between visual and written content. There are many forms this could take.
- Look at the IB Art Assessment Criteria page to see how they will be scored.

Process Portfolio: Journal pages, 9-18 screens (40% of test)
(all digital, jpg. or pdf.)
- I recommend 3-5 pages per studio project.
- The pages chosen should function as proof of your experimentation, exploration, manipulation and refinement of visual arts activities that led you to your studio works.
- Reflecting on all of the above in your journal is also very important to show in the Process Portfolio.
- DO NOT include a final picture of your Studio Work in this section.
- Look at the IB Art Assessment Criteria page to see how they will be scored.

Exhibition, Studio Works: 4-7 studio works photographed (40% of test)
(all digital, jpg. 5MB max.)
- Files labeled with: Title, Month created, Medium, Size (in cm.) and a brief outline of the original intentions
- Also include a document that provides a brief description of each studio work
- The studio work should demonstrate technical accomplishments and an understanding of the use of materials, ideas and practices.
- Students may choose to include up to two additional photographs of each submitted work. This is intended to provide a sense of scale when showing large works or for pieces that have more than one viewpoint, such as sculpture or installation. These extra photos are not necessary for most studio pieces.
- Look at the IB Art Assessment Criteria page to see how they will be scored.
