Description:

How does this term "art " work, and why does it matter? Written by an award-winning teacher as a response to the challenge increasingly voiced by many of his students, What is 'art, ' anyway, and why should I care? this book is a welcome response that aims to bring readers into meaningful relationships with art. In the process, it teaches them to think, both critically and creatively, not only about "art " but about anything at all. (Re)Thinking Art: A Guide for Beginners is a wonderful read for both students and all those would-be art mavens who find themselves wondering what to make of art today.
