the art of looking.
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.
9th graders
"so what do you think this figure is? male or female?"
student: "i think it's a guy."
"what do you see that makes you say that?"
student: "he has crusty toes."
