RE: secondary art history

This reminded me of when I inherited a class that was pure art history.

I began art labs with every major time period. We stopped and experienced
the mark making or technology of the time. For cave I got them to lay on
paper on floor and try making marks on paper attached to the bottom side of
the table...or in a large frig box.... For Renaissance we cast plaster in
shoe box top and tried our hand at fresco painting.... Well you get the
idea. Correctly presented I found it added a depth of understanding to the
class.
