2011 Visual Arts Exhibition

The 2011 Visual Art Exhibition held yesterday evening was an opportunity for our Year 11, 12 and 13 students to show the culmination of their year's work - the bulk of the course - which is worth 12 credits at each respective level.  The works were completed in the following media: painting, design, architectural design, fashion design, book illustration and photography.  This represents an impressive breadth of work and talent within the school.  Approximately 70 students were involved in last evening's offering.

Everyone who came to the exhibition was delighted with the quality of the art works that they saw; Mr Sutherland received consistently positive feedback for the boys.  It was great to see the staff support for our budding artists as well.  The Visual Arts Exhibition is the last of a series of events put on by HBHS to promote and support the Arts in 2011.  The highlight of the year for the Art Department itself was 'In Pictura Est'... and workshops provided for local primary and intermediate schools, as well as the sustained community links around the 'Transfusion' Art Competition.
