Art courses everywhere are belittled because of so many art
teachers who ignore art history - the close and difficult
examination of the changes of styles over the centuries -
favoring instead a "creative" approach urging the students
to paint, draw, etc. according to their own lights.

Shouldn't a sound Art course examine the historical
development of style and the students' attempts to
reproduce those?

How do YOU teach Art?
