Book Description
The First Comprehensive Book to Examine the Teaching Methodsof the Artist Renowned for theHomage to the Square Paintings.Josef Albers (1888-1976) has long been admired for his progressive visionas an artist who blurred distinctions between fine and applied art, butrarely has his work as a teacher been examined in detail.The German-bornartist was a remarkable classroom performer whose colorful language, wit,and dramatic flair held his students spellbound and turned his lessons intohigh adventure.Whether at the Bauhaus in prewar Germany, Black MountainCollege in rural North Carolina during the 1930s and 1940s, or at Yale inthe 1950s, Albers was driven by one thing--the desire to open his students'eyes to a different way of perceiving art and, ultimately, life.JOSEF ALBERS: TO OPEN EYES by Frederick A. Horowitz and Brenda Danilowitz,is the first book to focus on how the legendary artist Josef Albersinfluenced generations of artists, architects, and designers, includingRobert Mangold, Robert Rauschenberg, Donald Judd, Bertrand Goldberg, andTom Geismar, through his work and legacy as an educator.Marking the 30thanniversary of Albers's death, the book examines his life and teachingmethods, and reveals his philosophies on art, life, and the nature ofperception based on first-hand accounts of more than 175 students andcolleagues spanning more than 40 years.The book will coincide with amajor exhibition at the Whitney Museum of American Art which will run fromNovember 2, 2006- January 21, 2007.JOSEF ALBERS: TO OPEN EYES takes the reader through Albers's life inteaching.He began his career in 1923, when Walter Gropius invited him tojoin the faculty of the Bauhaus in Germany, where he quickly replaced theschool's standard course curriculum with his own innovative methods.Aftermoving to the United States in 1933, he and his wife Anni became foundingmembers and teachers at the experimental start-up BlackMountain College.In 1950, he was appointed to head Yale's newlyrestructured Department of Design and remained there until he retired in1958.Although he is widely perceived as a strong-minded theoretician, as thisbook reveals, Albers opposed rigid dogma and encouraged his students todevelop lively and original solutions to his many and varied designexercises.On their first day in his classroom, Albers's students wereinformed that his goal was to educate their eyes and that he was going toteach them how to think and to see--an agenda belied by the somewhatprosaic course names "Basic Drawing" and "Basic Design" and "Color."With energy and flair, Danilowitz and Horowitz have charted Albers'sworld-changing role as a teacher.Through their archival research oforiginal correspondence, documents, student course notes, and student workproduced in his courses, and their interviews of former students,colleagues, and associates of Albers, they reveal the way that Albers'sideas on education and his complex personality have made an indelibleimprint in the lives and work of artists all over the world.This bookprovides not only a compelling study of a key figure of 20th century art,but also ponders what constitutes art and how it is made and taught.

Outstanding Description of the Methods of A Superlative Art Teacher.......2007-02-08
Josef Albers: To Open Eyes by Frederick A. Horowitz and Brenda Danilowitz, is a beautiful, magnificent book about this internationally eminent artist, teacher of art, and theorist of design and color. It simply could not be better.
Brenda Danilowitz, Chief Curator of the Josef and Anni Albers Foundation in Bethany, Connecticut, writes about the biography of Albers, 64 pages, while Frederick A. Horowitz, a former student of Albers at Yale, who taught a The University of Michigan School of Art & Design in Ann Arbor and at Washtenaw Community College, devotes 181 pages to Albers as teacher of design, drawing, color and painting. An additional 34 pages cover Notes, Bibliography, Sources, Illustrations and Index. To find out what made Albers such a unique and revered teacher Frederick Horowitz interviewed a total of 160 students at Bauhaus, Black Mountain College, Yale and Harvard as well as 9 of his professional colleagues.
Albers was first a student and then a member of the faculty of the original Bauhaus in Germany. When Hitler took over Germany in 1933 and the faculty, led by Mies van der Rohe, closed the Bauhaus, Albers came to the U.S. to teach, first at Black Mountain College in North Carolina and then, beginning in 1950, at Yale as Head of the Department of Design. By 1962 Yale University awarded him an honorary Doctorate at the same time she similarly honored President John F. Kennedy and former Secretary of State Dean Acheson.
Albers experimented with color relationships in the form of nested squares of color. His great dedication resulted in a retrospective exhibition of his oeuvre at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, an honor only rarely given to a living artist. Another retrospective was organized in 1988 at the Guggenheim Museum in New York.
At Yale all first-year graduate students in architecture, undergraduates majoring in architecture and design, and all students in design took Albers' courses in color and in drawing, while his basic design course was meant for undergraduates majoring in architecture.
Albers had a wide influence on generations of artists, architecture and design. The book makes it eminently clear why Albers was as influential a teacher as he was and why his courses and theories became the basis of art teaching all over the United States.
The text of this truly remarkable book is very informative and well written. The illustrations are superlative, carefully chosen and in many instances unique, not available anywhere else since they come from the Albers Foundation. I counted 284 illustrations, 103 in color.
By describing the life and artful work of Josef Albers this book demonstrates to teachers and lovers of art at all levels how to impart a life-long desire to experiment with fundamental principles of art and with novel materials to create new objects of art.
Relevance.......2006-12-30
"Josef Albers: to Open Eyes" by F.A.Horowitz and B. Danilowitz is not only a review into the life and work of a great complex artist and teacher. It also signals the end of a debatable era called "postmodernism" whose glitz, pomp and kitsch we have been witnessing universally since Tom Wolfe's pamphlet "From Bauhaus to Our House". "Josef Albers: to Open Eyes" also gives hope to the rediscovery of relevance. This elaborate study deserves to be part of the curriculum of the future art generation in its defining process.

An Essential Book for Art Teachers Everywhere.......2006-12-20
Many people may not know that Josef Albers played a large part in revolutionizing teaching art in the 20th Century. Many people do not know how many 2oth century artists lives were in some way affected by his teaching--either directly or indirectly.
It is surprising that it has taken this long for a book on the remarkable teaching career of Josef Albers to appear, but here it finally is. Fred Horowitz and Brenda Danilowitz do a superb job of bringing the pedagogical thinking of perhaps the greatest 20th century art educator to life as well giving us a clear picture of the teacher himself. If this is the only book you ever read on teaching art you will give yourself the greatest gift possible.
The explanations and analysis of individual projects in four foundations courses, are coherent and represent the meat of this remarkable book. Plentiful fine illustrations from the Albers Foundation Archives, the Bauhaus and Black Mountain College make clear the descriptions of the problems and the reasons Albers found these to be indispensible in developing visual thinking--in opening eyes.
The choice of type weight, spacing, margin widths, and the light value of the ink may make reading the text a little difficult, but you should persevere--because real gold lies within the text. This is not just a book for the pictures!!
The publishers should take note, however, that Josef Albers as a designer would have deplored the way the layout and typography makes the reading a difficult task. I wonder whether the book designers took the trouble to read the text, or if they might benefited from some of the basic lessons imparted in Albers' famous Design courses.
I hope that with the publishing of this book, the vital lessons that Albers made the core of his life teaching will once again be brought alive and vigorous into the Foundations classrooms of colleges and art schools worldwide.
Superb narrative of a brilliantly talented man.......2006-12-11
What a mammoth yet intriguing and masterful study of the brilliantly talented Josef Albers! This book has many substantial insights, but I was personally fascinated with the depth of passion that Albers demonstrated both for his art and his pedagogy. Fred Horowitz has elegantly evoked the ways that Albers sought to "open" the eyes of his students, so they could "bring the conscious mind to bear on the task at hand" and take risks as they became "creative, self-reliant, [and] independent."

THE VOCABULARY BOOK: A Much Needed Resource for Teachers, Researchers, and Literacy Policymakers.......2006-03-23
THE VOCABULARY BOOK provides readers with a fascinating and compelling case for effective vocabulary instruction in our schools based on theory, research, and best practice. In clear, engaging prose, Graves helps us to understand the thinking and research of some of the best minds in vocabulary research ranging from Terman, Thorndike, and Dale to Clifford, Carnine, Beck, McKeown, Anderson, Nagy, Hart and Risley; Carlo, August, and Snow; and his own research conducted over the past 30 years.

The Vocabulary Book.......2006-02-27
This book pairs well with Isabel Beck's book,Bringing Words to Life. Graves covers many of the same topics in vocab.in a very similar fashion, even with some of the same terminology. This is a good additional resource for teachers and reading coaches to use as an aid in helping students.

The Book of Kells: informing and illuminating.......2007-09-30
The Book of Kells is one of the most beautiful manuscripts in existence. This booklet enables those of us who are unlikely to ever see the real manuscript to feast our eyes on many of the illustrations as well as to learn a little of its history and preparation. Most of the illustrations are in colour and their vibrancy is still apparent across 12 centuries.
I consider that this booklet is worth acquiring for the illustrations alone. It also contains a lot of useful information for those interested in the physical preparation of such manuscripts as well as the underlying historical significance of this particular manuscript.
Highly recommended.

The Book of Kells: An Illustrated Introduction.......2007-01-13
The book was just what I was expecting. Shipping was quick.
Darkness into Light.......2005-08-25
I was glad I had this book along with me when I went to see the real Book of Kells at the Trinity College Library in Dublin. The lines of tourists waiting to view this famous eighth century manuscript were about a quarter of a mile long, and the museum proctors were really hustling us through the area where a small sampling of pages were actually on view.
(If you take the tour, be sure to check out the main chamber of the Old Library with its first editions of Newton and Darwin, plus the harp that is (alas, falsely) attributed to Brian Boru, high king of Ireland).
The first facsimile of the Book of Kells was published in 1974, and although this book only advertises itself as 'an illustrated introduction to the manuscript...' it contains good color plates of many of the most famous pages, e.g. the symbols of the four evangelists and the beginning of the 'Breves causae' of Matthew, among others.
Author, Bernard Meehan, the current Keeper of Manuscripts at Trinity College states that "the sacred text itself was copied in the Book of Kells with a remarkable degree of inaccuracy." It consists of the Latin text of the Gospels, illuminated in the very ornate Hiberno-Saxon style ('Hiberno' refers to the Irish, or Hibernians).
Legend has it that the Book of Kells was produced by St. Colum Cille on the island of Iona off western Scotland. Although it was probably begun in the Irish monastery on Iona, it was taken to the monastery of Kells in County Meath, after a series of Viking raids. The monastery on Iona was pillaged in 795, and again in 802. According to the author, "In 806, sixty-eight of the community were killed in another raid. The following year, the survivors migrated to Ireland and began to erect conventual buildings at Kells..." where the illumination of the manuscript was probably completed.
If you are interested in the historical background of the Book of Kells, the author devotes a whole Appendix to it.
Alas, according to this book's second Appendix, "Losses, Additions and Marginalia," the Book of Kells has not remained intact down through the centuries. "At present there are 340 folios, but around thirty folios, including some major decorated pages have been lost." The monks also used blank spaces in the manuscript to record details of property transactions in the late eleventh and twelfth centuries.
Meehan's book is definitely worth viewing and reading. It also contains a wealth of the smaller decorative illustrations that do not always relate to the sacred text, e.g. hares, dogs, horses, and at least one moth. The color and minute details of these decorations are a source of endless fascination, and the scholarly text, although a trifle dry, is also very interesting.
awesome pictures, horrible writing.......2005-05-16
I like how the author gives various images of the book of kells, but gets really confusing and goes all over the place while writing about it. I think a lot could be learned from this book, but the author crams so many examples into the work that it starts to get annoying. Ever line seems to have parenthesis around something and folio this or that. For that alone i give the book two stars, multiple examples are good, just not when you plague every line with one. It hardly gives the reader a chance to understand the first few.
"The most precious object in the western world".......2002-12-01
Resting at Trinity College Dublin is one of the truly singular products of early European art. This is 'The Book of Kells,' an ornately illuminated rendition of the four gospels, rendered sometime in the Ninth Century. It has been both an influence and an inspiration since the time of its making, illustrating both the story it tells, and the subtle mind of symbolists who wove the story and the art together.
One of the key problems the student of illustrated art suffers in any attempt to study 'The Book of Kells' is the simple matter of access. I believe that the replica edition of the book cost nearly $20,000 when it was published, and most other resources limit themselves to only the most famous of the pages. Only a few detailed studies exist, and this one, written by Bernard Meehan (Keeper of Manuscripts at Trinity College), is one of the best, both in terms of quality and quantity of reproduction as well as a literate and thorough discussion.
Meehan covers the book's history, influences and parallels, the decorative scheme, and many of the decorative themes used by the illuminators. He also spends time on the more technical aspects of ink and paper. He does this in a pleasant, straightforward yet academically thorough style that is often a fount of information. Where he does not go himself, he provides indications of other possibilities for research and thought. Meehan's agenda is simply to present one of the wonders of human creativity for all to see and enjoy, and he succeeds admirably.

Complicated textbook to follow page by page. Yet, a terrific book when it comes to learning the fundamentals of english.
English 2600.......2002-05-18
I have used an older version of this book for years. It takes a subject and explains it in the most simple form, and gradually moves to a more advanced level so that the reader fully comprehends the subject matter. The format for the book is unique from any other book that I have used. This is without a doubt the best book that I have ever used for students who need English, grammar, and sentence structure starting at the basic level.
Teaching English as a Second Language.......2000-01-23
As a teacher in Japan, for students who have a fairly large vocabulary, this is an excellent book. Sometimes we need to go to the dictionary to learn a new word, but the explainations of why and how these elements are used is very helpful. My students feel like winners when they complete a chapter. However, I am using the older edition without the writing application from my own highschool days.

The fastest and easiest way to learn English grammar.......2001-07-26
Programmed learning appeals to all age levels. There is no anxiety nor confusion as one turns rapidly through this book. I have used this book with children who could read at the age of 7 and have received positive comments from adults who had missed a firm grounding in grammar. ESL learners also can profit from the guidance inherent in a programmed text.
Book Description
This introductory exploration of basic artistic concepts and terms applies them to a skeletal multi-disciplinary and multi-cultural history of artistic styles. It treats all the artspainting, printmaking, photography, sculpture, music, theatre, dance, film, architecture, literatureuniformly, and uses a common outline to reinforce the relationship of terms and concepts to the perceptual process. The book also ties both artistic media and history to the theme of art as a reflection of human reality This examination focuses on the media of the arts, pictures, sculpture, music, theatre, cinema, dance, architecture, literature, the styles of the arts, ancient approaches, artistic reflections in the pre-modern world, as well as artistic styles in the emerging modern world and, the beginnings of modernism, pluralism in a post-modern age. For art enthusiasts and others interested exploring how artists express themselves.
Book Description
Although it lasted only twenty-three years (1933-1956) and enrolled fewer than 1,200 students, Black Mountain College was one of the most fabled experimental institutions in art education and practice. Its art teachers included Josef Albers, Ilya Bolotowsky, Willem de Kooning, Buckminster Fuller, Franz Kline, and Robert Motherwell, and among their students were John Chamberlain, Kenneth Noland, Robert Rauschenberg, Dorothea Rockburne, and Cy Twombly. The performing arts teachers included John Cage, Merce Cunningham, Lou Harrison, Roger Sessions, David Tudor, and Stefan Wolpe, and among the literature teachers and students were Robert Creeley, Fielding Dawson, Ed Dorn, Robert Duncan, Francine du Plessix Gray, Charles Olson, M. C. Richards, and John Wieners.
This book, which accompanies an exhibition organized by the Museo Nacional Centro de Arte Reina Sof in Madrid, contains nearly 500 color and black and white illustrations, many never before published.
Most of the images directly support the ideas and evidence presented in the book's four essays, all commissioned for this book. Poet Robert Creeley recounts his first meeting with his mentor and friend Charles Olson. Composer Martin Brody gives a history of the musical world of the 1930s to 1950s, in which Black Mountain played a significant role. Critic Kevin Power looks at the history and content of the experimental literary journal The Black Mountain Review, which was instrumental in the launching of the Black Mountain school of poetry. Curator Vincent Katz discusses the philosophy of the college's founders, the Bauhaus principles followed by art instructor Josef Albers, and the many interactions among the arts in the college's later years. The book also contains detailed histories of the careers of sixty-five Black Mountain artists, drawing on new interviews with John Chamberlain, Robert Creeley, Merce Cunningham, Fielding Dawson, Joseph Fiore, Richard Lippold, Kenneth Noland, Pat Passlof, Arthur Penn, Dan Rice, Dorothea Rockburne, Gerald van de Wiele, Susan Weil, and John Wieners.

Book Description
This successful text shows students how to use study strategies by integrating their reading, writing, and listening skills. Through a balance of discussion and carefully sequenced exercises, Sotiriou coves basic college survival skills and progresses to specific strategies for studying, reading, note taking, and exam taking. Integrating College Study Skills is more sophisticated than many books on the market because it doesn't look or read like a workbook. It delves deeper into the understanding and application of basic learning strategies, more so than other study skills books, by guiding the student to use reasoning when studying.

a useful strategy guide for college students!.......2002-04-04
I often like to adopt a syntopic reading approach to books in the same genre...partly because it is great fun and partly, I can get more leverage, in terms of learning points, out of the books in the ultimate reading process. I also get to understand and appreciate how two or more independent authors tackle a common issue with, sometimes, different and diverse viewpoints. (For an understanding of the syntopic reading process, get hold of Mortimer Adler's How to Read a Book.)
In this particularly instance, I read Peter Sotiriou's Integrating College Study Skills syntopically with Jean Reynolds' 'Succeeding in College' book.
On the whole, I found that they can complement each other pretty well, although there are similarities in content as well as contrasts in approach. Both authors demand the reader to take a pro-active approach in the reading process.
Peter Sotiriou's book is more specific to the reasoning process embodied in reading, listening & writing. The many exercises in this respect are deliberately constructed in a cumulative, step-by-step fashion. This makes the book very helpful for the college student reader to follow. The author takes great pain to explain and illustrate the process of summarising and paraphrasing upon reading, which are two vital information gathering skills for college students.
Jean Reynolds' book is more comprehensive in the coverage of the overall 'study strategies' process. It is also more broad-based, as the author very skilfully uses many success stories of athletes, performers, professional men and women, and leaders in diverse fields to illustrate her points.
I particularly enjoy the author's creative treatment of critical thinking with the aid of the pencil. She recognises the pencil as an inexpensive thinking tool. A very interesting concept...practical, too.
In terms of introducing reading techniques, both authors did their job pretty well. Both provided ample exercises.
To sum up, both books can serve as useful strategy guides for college students. Both are designed to to help you enjoy and benefit from your college experiences.
