Questioning the Assumptions behind Art Criticism.
Venable, Bradford B.
Art Education, v51 n5 p6-9 Sep 1998
Examines three assumptions evident in the practice of art criticism models: (1) the connection of first impressions with the viewer's past experience; (2) the connection between sequential procedures and learning; and (3) the use of judgment as a necessary step in understanding. Describes a new criticism model that stresses understanding and personal impressions. (CMK)
