Art Websites for Students and Teachers
compiled by Susan Clark
Here are some web sites I found interesting and full of potential for
art students and
teachers! There are sites that are mostly educational and sites
that are mostly commercial. The
sites that are commercial try to throw some education in here and there
too.
educational sites

4.Computers in the primary Classroom
Computers in the Primary Cl.url
This is a homey site with lots of good old experienced teacher advise.
Below is the
index for the site. This site is full of anecdotes but also has
links to practical sites.

5. ART
Art.url http://art.thelinks.com/
This is not my favorite of all the sites but it has some pretty off-beat
stuff. Check out
their ³art and technology² link and the link to a kind of
cartoonist in Turkey.
6. Art Net
I liked this Commercial site. It has a chat room and email.
I bought some books at
their book store. The book store had good images of the books,
pictures of the cover
and two inside pages. I bought a book on the Plains Indians that
was ³listed ³ at $23
and sold to me for $15 . Watch out though cause shipping
two books was $5 This
site also linked to a good auction site with good art images from private
collections.

7. World Wide Arts Resources -.url
I think that the blurb claiming to be the ³only definitive²
is a bit far reaching, but
this is a pretty comprehensive site. Check out Supplies!
http://wwar.com/
World Wide Arts Resources offers the only definitive, interactive gateway
to all
exemplars of qualitative arts information and culture on the Internet.
Artists,
museums, galleries, art history, arts education, antiques, performing
arts ranging from
dance to opera, classified ads, resume postings, arts chat, discussion
forums and more.

8.Next Monet .com
This site is not yet in full operation but I think it bears watching.
Backed by a major
company these people are planning to put good contemporary art for
sale on the
Internet. They will be attending the College Art Association
conference looking for
people. They say they are going to put hundreds of artists on
their site. They say
that each one will be visited in their studios! I find it hard
to believe that some guy
is going to show up in the Hamlet of Washington CT. to check my studio.
But
wouldn¹t it be great for art if people all over could see each
others work. Great for
secondary art students.
http://www.NextMonet.com/
I also found a group of sites that is great as a resource for a larger
perspective of culture.
9. AFRICAN ART: AESTHETICS AND MEANING
