Response to Smith's "A Right to the Best."
Hobbs, Jack
Studies in Art Education, v26 n3 p176-78 Spr 1985
The author critiques Smith's assertions that (1) there is such a thing as elitism in an educational context, (2) artwork can engender a heightened experience and (3) the careful choosing of exemplary pieces of art as instructional materials for art education is necessary to help students achieve the aesthetic experience.
