Overview

The Story Of Art Workbook is designed specifically to accompany the classic text, The Story of Art by E.H. Gombrich. This supplemental drawing workbook has roughly 400 assignments to help students get the most they can out of The Story of Art, and out of their art history and art appreciation courses. The workbook challenges students to undertake fun-to--do drawing excersises that help them experience and understand the concepts firsthand, before or after they've read about in the textbook.

As a supplemental workbook, The Story Of Art Workbook uniquely addresses the most pressing paradox that currently exists in every college and university Art Appreciation and Introductory Art History classroom in the United States. Namely, the seminal visual principals, theories, and concepts in Art's history are still delivered solely through the same old, textual approach. This antiquated methodology remains to this very day, as distant, passive, and ineffectual as it was since its conception. After all, one cannot and should not expect the major achievements of the visual arts to be fully understood, grasped or appreciated by any means other than a direct, hands-on approach.

The Story Of Art Workbook's various assignments are presented in the workbook in simple, contemporary terms and scenarios. The Table of Contents closely follows many versions of Gombrich's classic text, and is organized along the lines of a typical Art History and Art Appreciation course.
