Art Appreciation
Heine, Florian. 13 Paintings Children Should
Know. New York: Prestel, 2012.
This title offers biographies of 13 important painters with full-
color reproductions of their paintings. The painters include some
of the obvious choices, like Rembrandt, but also includes some
lesser known artists such as Hieronymus Bosch. The biographies
are put into context with a timeline which highlights world
events. This title is accessible to it’s intended audience, fourth
through eighth grade, while still being informative to readers of
any age.
(Booklist, Nov. 15, 2012 (Vol. 109, No. 6))
Essential Artists by David Spence
Each volume of this series offers a biography of an influential
artist intended for ages 11 through 15. What sets this series apart
is that instead of only giving a biography and some reproduction
of the artist’s work, the author includes a discussion of various
interpretations of the art works. This is a resource to help students
practice in art criticism.
(VOYA, August 2011 (Vol. 34, No. 3)
Art and Culture of the Prehistoric World by
Beatrice Brooke
Art and Culture of the Prehistoric World offers readers an insight
into a little known era of artistic expression. The language in this
title is very well suited for readers ages 9 through 12. It will
appeal to students interested in art and history. This resource
offers a bibliography for further reading, an index, and a glossary
of defined words which is especially helpful for students when
learning about prehistoric eras.
(Midwest Book Review (Children's Bookwatch, January 2010))
Pop Art by Richard Spilsbury
Pop Art is intended for students in 5th through 8th grade. With
defined vocabulary words, suggested reading, and clear language
this title explains the art movement through the 1950's and
1960's. This title would be a good resource for parents who were
homeschooling their children and want to expose them to
somewhat modern art.
(Booklist, Jan. 1, 2009 (Vol. 105, No. 9))
!Women Art Revolution from Zeitgeist Films
While men tend to dominate discussions of western art, !Women
Art Revolution portrays the feminist art movement over the last
four decades. It chronicles the rejection of the first wave of
feminist art to the actions of the Guerilla Girls. This film
incorporates interviews from art critics and curators, feminist
artists, and experpts from performance pieces. Although not
intended for children, this film would be suitable for mature
students and could easily be used in an art or modern american
history classroom or lesson plan.
Circuating Resources
Art Instruction
Inkblot: Drip, Splat, and Squish Your Way to
Creativity by Margaret Peot
This title represents a very underrepresented art form. Peot
offers clear, step-by-step instructions for users to create
their own inkblot art. This title is useful for parents and
teachers who want to introduce children to an uncommon
and fun form of art. The real appeal behind this title lies in
that it can appeal to students who feel they have no artistic
talent because inkblots are more abstract and rely laregly
on interpretation.
(Kirkus Reviews, February 15, 2011 (Vol. 79, No. 4))
Cartoons and Manga by Des Taylor
This title will not have universal appeal, but it will have great
appeal to children and students who are interested in comic
books, graphic novels, manga, and anime. This title is unique
among cartooning books because it explains the drawing aspect
along with digital illustration and animation. Boldfaced words
found throughout the text are defined in the glossary and the text
is littered with facts about famous animators and manga artists.
(Booklist, Dec. 15, 2011 (Col. 108, No. 8)
Learn to Draw Princesses by Catherine
McCafferty
Although this does not seem at first glance to be a good title to
refer a budding artist to, this title (with specialized appeal,
admittedly) is a great resource to help children practice the details
of sharp lines, shape, and color while keeping some interested in
characters the already know like Sleeping Beauty and Cinderella.
Besides only instructing students on how to draw a particular
figure, the text also takes another approach and tells the student
what does not work in drawing.
(Booklist, Mar. 15, 2011 (Vol. 107, No. 14))
Art in Action by Matja Pitamic
This title takes 12 masterpieces and gives step-by-step
instructions for two related projects on each masterpiece. This
title exposes students to many different schools of art like pop art
and cubism. The related projects go beyond simple drawings, but
include building theme boxes and making prints out of rubber
bands. With some parental or teacher guidance children can learn
about famous artists and artistic methods while exploring their
own creativity through various mediums.
