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.

high school students


"so tell me, what's going on here?"

student 1: "well, i think the king is angry. he's mad at at something."

student 2: "yeah, i think that guy in purple is gay. and he's the king's son. and the king is mad because his son is gay."

student 3: "yeah! and the girl in pink is just his fake girlfriend."
