Six powerpoints containing 453 slides covering 202 artists and graphic designers (the majority are contemporary) collected and categorised ready to use. The slides contain high quality images for each artist covering a broad spectrum of their work. They can be used for stimulus for a project or to support a student’s coursework in a particular theme.
I have collected and used these over the past 15 years with GCSE and A level Art and Design students to provide them with appropriate artists for their coursework and exam projects in order to cover their critical and contextual reference.
