Exemplars (from the NaCCA curriculum)

Learners are to:
- decide on the types and number of artworks (2-dimensional and 3-dimansional) to exhibit and mount them based on the space available to suit the theme for the exhibition (e.g. artworks that reflect the medium and style of international artists studied);
- display artworks by hanging, draping, placing, spreading, leaning, using plinths to raise or add height and depth to some exhibits;
- label the works using manual (calligraphy writing) or ICT (computer prints): name of artist, title of work, size of work, date of production;
- assign tasks and responsibilities to themselves (individually or in groups) and ensure they are carried out successfully (e.g. leading visitors through the exhibition space, explaining the concepts/title of the artworks and the theme for the exhibition, writing of comments and signing of visitors' books).
NOTE
- check/monitor visitors from improper practices e.g. touching, lifting, handling and/or taking away some of the exhibits;
- organise opening and closing ceremonies for the exhibition.
