This open resource was created by Texas Woman’s University undergraduate students in an upper-level visual arts course titled Issues in Contemporary Art.  Working in groups, the students created at total of seven lesson plans that explore the themes: Art and Disability, Dark Surrealism, Eco-Art, Expressing Identity with the Human Body, Kitsch in Art, Mental Health/Illness in Art, and The Gaze Sexuality and Perceptions of the Female Body. The themes covered in the lesson plans were student-generated and reflect current student interests in contemporary art.  Each lesson plan contains a curated background reading list, suggested artists and artworks to examine, discussion questions, short artist biographies, and additional resources.  The structure of the lesson plan is modeled after the Art History Teaching Resources (AHTR) (http://arthistoryteachingresources.org/).

World Art History: Multicultural Connections covers material in World Art History I & II courses exploring art from across the world during a specified time frame. This course remixes Boundless Art History, created by Boundless and imported to the Lumen Platform, and offers additional open resources developed by Sara Ishii, PhD from Texas Woman’s University.
