商品描述
Lessons, demonstrations, definitions, and tips on what to expect in art school, what it means to make art, and how to think like an artist.
What is the first thing to learn in art school? "Art can be anything." The second thing? "Learn to draw." With 101 Things to Learn in Art School, artist and teacher Kit White delivers and develops such lessons, striking an instructive balance between technical advice and sage concepts. These 101 maxims, meditations, and demonstrations offer both a toolkit of ideas for the art student and a set of guiding principles for the artist. Complementing each of the 101 succinct texts is an equally expressive drawing by the artist, often based on a historical or contemporary work of art, offering a visual correlative to the written thought. "Art can be anything" is illustrated by a drawing of Duchamp's famous urinal; a description of chiaroscuro art is illuminated by an image "after Caravaggio"; a lesson on time and media is accompanied by a view of a Jenny Holzer projection; advice about surviving a critique gains resonance from Piero della Francesca's arrow-pierced Saint Sebastian.
101 Things to Learn in Art School offers advice about the issues artists confront across all artistic media, but this is no simple handbook to making art. It is a guide to understanding art as a description of the world we live in, and it is a guide to using art as a medium for thought. And so this book belongs on the reading list of art students, art teachers, and artists, but it also belongs in the library of everyone who cares about art as a way of understanding life.

商品描述(中文翻譯)
關於藝術學校的課程、示範、定義和建議，讓你了解在藝術學校會遇到什麼、創作藝術的意義，以及如何像藝術家一樣思考。
藝術學校的第一件事是學什麼？「藝術可以是任何東西。」第二件事呢？「學會畫畫。」在101 Things to Learn in Art School中，藝術家和教師Kit White提供並發展了這些課程，巧妙地平衡了技術建議和智慧概念。這101條格言、沉思和示範為藝術學生提供了一套思想工具，同時也為藝術家提供了一組指導原則。每一段簡潔的文字都配有藝術家的同樣富有表現力的插圖，這些插圖通常基於歷史或當代的藝術作品，為書面思想提供了視覺上的對應。「藝術可以是任何東西」的概念由杜尚著名的小便池插圖來詮釋；對明暗對比藝術的描述則由一幅「仿卡拉瓦喬」的圖像來照亮；關於時間和媒介的課程則伴隨著珍妮·霍爾澤的投影畫面；有關如何在批評中生存的建議則從皮耶羅·德拉·弗朗西斯卡的箭穿聖塞巴斯蒂安的畫作中獲得共鳴。
101 Things to Learn in Art School提供了藝術家在各種藝術媒介中面對的問題的建議，但這並不是一本簡單的藝術創作手冊。它是理解藝術作為我們所生活世界的描述的指南，也是將藝術作為思考媒介的指南。因此，這本書應該列入藝術學生、藝術教師和藝術家的閱讀清單中，但它同樣也應該在每一位關心藝術作為理解生活方式的人的圖書館中。
