Did you ever watch Destina?

Yaaay!! I was looking up Dali and his weirdness earlier on, and there was this really good article entitled "10 bizarre facts about Dali" ,you should have a look it (if you haven't already). Actually I'm not sure if you'll find it haha

As in the song Destina? but if it's not the song then no I haven't watched it :P

I'll search it

Destina is a short movie, a collaboration between Walt Disney and Salvador Dali. It's beautiful!

and by short movie I mean it's not even 10 mins, its on youtube :P

Same Looking over the papers the questions can range from extremely broad to ridiculously specific like ' talk about art work during pre christian ireland referring to atleast two tombs youve studied' or 'talk about a painting by michaelangelo of relgiious subject matter and compare it to another artist of that same timeframe'

Especially this year with them trying to make it less predictable...
Should I be covered with stone bronze Iron Age or should I do something on early Christian/high crosses?

Peregrine

That restoration question last year was good. What are the chances we'll see something like that again?

I learnt bronze age/stone age and early christian metalwork/iron age, i left out high crosses theyre so f*ckin boring

Whats everyone doing for appreciation?

Peregrine

Just any sort of design, hopefully. Product design hasn't come up in 2 years, Industrial or something similar would do too.

Archtectural restoration would be nice, if it comes up.

I'm hopeless at gallery questions.

It looks like theres much more choice than there actually is though:( Like theres about 8 questions but usually we've only covered about half of those topics at school or less! god they better not ask the gallery question in an obscure way Im banking on that question to hitch up my sh!te grade

Peregrine

It's true. There is so much choice but we wouldn't have even covered half of them

peekachoo

Believe in yourselves guys :cool:


...and by that I mean believe in the open question!

sarahd97

Does any think new grange would come up?

Peregrine

Well, I'm off.

If you open the paper don't see Casino Marino, Castletown and terraces houses, Impressionism(Renoir and Monet) and Product Design, spare a thought for the lazy idiot Nimrod who now has to bull**** his way through a whole exam

peekachoo

Dali & Bosch
newgrange
giotto
masaccio
Van gogh
le brocquy
michelangelo
yeats
picasso
And some of the metalwork like lunulae and stuff. ..

this better go my way :mad:

siobhaanx

Casino at Marino, Castletown, Cezanne, Van gough and a nice gallery or product design question or I'm ****ed

TaiHusky

If people did any way decent in the practical and life drawing then they shouldnt worry about passing.

Peregrine

That serious lack of product design was depressing

Jones82

1st 2 sections were fair enough, but that gallery question...

I swear I was the only one doing art in my school. I was the only one in my classroom and when I left there was absolutely NOBODY in the school

con8

What came up this year in art?

peekachoo

I am in shock.

In The BEST WAY EVERRR!!!!

ARGH I AM SO HAPPY!
Newgrange question was BEAUTIFUL
Surrealism question was BEAUTIFUL (I LOVE YOU DALI!!!!)
Gallery question was really interesting, I really enjoyed it!!!

Overall. I AM A HAPPY HAPPY BUNNY.

siobhaanx

Castletown and post impressionism questions were lovely, didn't really like the gallery question though, ran out of time at the end as well, but overall it was a nice paper
