simply asking "what do you see?" can elicit surprisingly insightful responses.

this is a collection of some of these insights that i've encountered while teaching at an art museum and in the community.

newer entries come from a new program called "the art of looking," that brings mobile art galleries to disabled adults and children.

just a reminder, the entries do not reflect personal commentary on art pieces or collections.

"so to engage high schools students into the art, let's work to create a conversation or thought bubbles for the characters in this piece."

teacher 1: "well my dialogue is between the 4 characters. i think the man with the red face is an industrialist, talking about market failures. the woman to his right is saying, "george, what a lovely tie!" his wife is to his left and saying, "george, you're about to have a heart attack." the man the right is the pretty woman's husband and has nothing to say, but he is just smiling."
