A Brief History of John Baldessari | Education, Take Note

How history should be taught.

I hated art history in school (even though art was the only subject in which I excelled in some small way).

Most of it was taught through text with a few pictures thrown in accompanied by the ramblings of a bored art teacher who was trying his best to make it all come alive.

It didn’t work.

Since we now have the technology, get a kick ass icon with a voice of gravel weave a sweet narrative over some impressive visuals. Let it sink in. Then discuss.

Job done.

Well it left me wanting to know more about John Baldessari.

Found in a random tweet from Wellington City Library.

  1. Great little number for inspiration on a Saturday morning, felt like bottling that voice to drink later.
