The book presents all the essential parts of an introductory art history course --visual elements, principles of design, style, media, and art history--in a compelling format that invites critical thinking and teaches multicultural visual literacy. Students will not only learn the parts of art, they will develop, step by step, a deeper understanding of art's power to communicate on multiple levels--universal, cultural, and personal. Each chapter includes an art history exercise, a studio exercise, and discussion questions. The assignments can easily be customized to focus on art history or studio art, as appropriate for specific courses and modalities. Approaches to Art empowers students to approach any work of art with the ability to see and appreciate far more than they could before. Developed and class-tested over a period of years, it is an ideal textbook for general education courses in introductory art history and art appreciation.

Download or read book Readings in Art Appreciation written by Andrew Svedlow and published by . This book was released on 2018 with total page 184 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why are certain objects important? This question serves as the gateway through which students enter Readings in Art Appreciation, an anthology dedicated to exploring the history and value of the visual arts. The carefully curated readings explore art created over the past 20,000 years in Europe, Asia, Africa, Australia, and North and South America. The selections take readers on a chronological tour beginning with the earliest creative pursuits of humankind and ending with modernity and post-modernity. While learning about architectural art in Egypt, the aesthetic sensibility of the Middle Ages, or the oldest sculpture at Tenochtitlan, the reader also becomes familiar with the values of a time and place as manifested in objects, and how this impacts and informs our lives today. Though the articles provide a chronological overview, they can easily be taken out of order and still give students a substantial understanding of the place visual arts hold in the world and in life. Readings in Art Appreciation is ideal for survey courses in art history, and classes in art appreciation or cultural studies. Andrew Svedlow received his Ph.D. from Pennsylvania State University and completed a program in management and leadership in education at Harvard University. He has directed and administered programs for the Smithsonian's National Museum of Design and the Museum of the City of New York and was twice selected as a Fulbright Scholar. Currently a professor of art history at Northern Colorado University, his art criticism has appeared in American Artist and New Art Examiner. He has also written numerous research articles and is the author of Thirty Works of Art Every Student Should Know.
Download or read book Art Appreciation written by Deborah Gustlin and published by Cognella Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2017-08-18 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Creative Art: Methods and Materials educates readers about a variety of art methods and the ways different civilizations have used them in artistic expression. Each of the fourteen chapters is designed around a specific art method and material, and includes examples of art works and the artists who created them. Students learn about bronze casting, stone carving, clay sculpture, woodcuts and posters, glass work, and installation art. Each method is matched to artists both ancient and modern. Rather than adhering to a standard approach that focuses on white, male, European artists, the book broadens the student's perspective by including often overlooked female artists. Global in approach and comprehensive in coverage of arts forms, representations, and styles throughout history, Creative Art has been developed for sixteen-week courses in art appreciation, or introductory survey courses in art history.

Students will then be able to apply this knowledge to unfamiliar works of art, beyond those typically presented in standard textbooks. Principles covered in this primer include visual elements such as line and pattern, shape and mass, light and color. Students will also enhance their ability to appreciate and interpret space, time and motion, and texture. The book helps students recognize and value how balance, rhythm, repetition, contrast, scale, and proportion are used in the visual arts. Each chapter includes activities and project ideas that allow students to immediately apply what they have learned. An Art Appreciation Primer: Elements and Principles of Design takes learning beyond textbooks and makes it possible for students to use their knowledge and skills to analyze and appreciate art in non-classroom contexts.
