Cy Twombly: "Synopsis of a Battle."
Glasser, Susan
Art Education, v42 n6 p29-30 Nov 1989
Introduces students in grades seven-nine to the sometimes ambiguous differences between abstract and realistic art. Explores ways in which the same idea can be expressed in both formats, using Cy Twombly's "Synopsis of a Battle" as an example. Students research a war and create both abstract and realistic pictures of the battlefield experience. (LS)
