Art Lessons: Learning To Interpret.
Carpenter, B. Stephen, II
Educational Leadership, v57 n3 p46-48 Nov 1999
When required to interpret works of art, students arrive at a broad-based, well-grounded understanding of the nature, value, and meaning of art in their lives. Teachers should offer art works, like those of Amalia Mesa-Bains, Joseph Stella, and Beverly Buchanan, whose narratives are complex and challenging, but not conceptually dense or indecipherable.
