Art Web sites

One way of enriching teaching and learning is to use the Internet to present images of the artists discussed. This is relatively straightforward, either by showing Web sites directly, or by putting key examples into simple presentations. A selection of useful Web links have been provided below (specific Web pages have been provided within each project). If you use images from Web sites, ensure that any copyright restrictions are not broken. You should also make sure that these images do not detract from the main aim of this resource, which is to show how rich ideas and images grow from simple beginnings.

Web-based galleries

	The Artchive – An excellent site with lots of modern art, variety, and also some good contextual information, although the ‘popups’ are irritating if you don’t switch them off on your browser.

	Web Gallery of Art – A great one for older classic art; very comprehensive.

	UK Art & Design Degree Shows – See what’s going on in the art colleges now.

	DARE – Digital Art Resource for Education – A wealth of contemporary art and ideas for art.

	World Wide Arts Resources – Lots of links on the Internet to, as it says, ‘art resources’.

	Museum of Web Art – A virtual gallery.
