Quick Ideas for Using our Art and Artists Videos:

• Foster an appreciation for the visual arts by learning from artists and curators directly.
• Give students a “behind the scenes” look at what goes into creating a piece of art by going “inside the head” of artists and seeing them create.
• Have students learn about different types and media of visual arts.
• Have students include insights gained through the videos as part of their projects, papers, and presentations on an arts-related subject by:
  • interpreting and/or summarizing what they saw and learned in the video.
  • citing quotations from the expert in the video.
