Art Daily - A comprehensive
art newspaper combining international listings and reviews (you can see what's on
anywhere, be it Birmingham or Baltimore) with an informed overview. Brush up on your art
history in the Milestones section, and check out the 3D art for images of great feats of
construction such as the Egyptian pyramids.
Art Guide - This site is a must for any art fan,
giving you details of hundreds of exhibitions and galleries throughout the country - so
you needn't miss a decent one again, wherever it may be.
ArtsEdNet - This site was developed by
the Getty Centre for Education. It is an electronic resource that's designed for the US
arts education community. Lesson plans, a number of paintings as well as reference tools
can be found here.
- Crayons. We've all
used them, we've all lost them, we've all broken them in half. But we haven't all
dedicated an entire Web site to them. Well these people have. And from a history of the
crayon to stain removal tips they do a damn fine job.
Eyes on Art - This site
leads you through the world of art, giving you an on-the-spot tutorial and allowing you to
browse through some of the finest pieces around. You can even build up your own virtual
gallery for easy access to your favourite paintings - and you thought you'd never have
your own Van Gogh!
Graphic Maps - A collection
of cartographic images and flags. Lacking in detail, but handy if you need simple graphic
images of countries, continents and political maps.
Royal Academy of Art - Check out their
new official Web site for information on current exhibitions and latest Academy news. A
very simple design lacking in inspiration - ironic considering these people are supposed
to be artists.
Salvador Dali Virtual Museum of
Art - A surrealist's hot spot. Put together by an obviously dedicated fan, this
Virtual Museum is very well laid out and contains a lot of Dali's paintings which you can
view on a small scale or in detail. However, it may take a long time to download.
The Making of Myths - Mythopoeia
- Gorgeous to look at and quite informative, this is an artistic take on the making
of myths.
World Wide Arts Resources - Exhaustive art resource
site offering everything except sobriety. "Over 7800 artists and over 100,000 other
arts resources have been registered - from happening, groovin', contemporary art events to
traditional planar exhibitions and way out 3-D cyber galleries - you'll find it
here!"
