art education initiative

The website, OpenStudio is a resource for primary school educators looking to teach meaningful art lessons. Artists are invited to create lessons which are posted on the website along with a brief biography of the artist. Mark Bradford conceived the idea as a way to make contemporary art more available to young people, to help them engage with art in a way congruous to their everyday life.

My first favorite lesson was Color Walk by Amy Sillman, but the more I read the more I find that I really like. Each lesson encourages thoughtfulness and exploration without suggesting a linear path towards completion.
