Modern Art

Have you seen the internet quiz "Can you tell the difference between Modern Art and Paintings by Toddlers?"  (Disclaimer: this site may contain other links that may not be appropriate for all ages)

As controversial as it may be to compare modern and contemporary art pieces to artwork by three-year-olds, I found this hilarious.  I also nailed it.  As an elementary art teacher and mom to a toddler, I guess I can really sniff out the "modern art" vs. the finger painting.  Whether you are a defender of modern art or really don't get it, see how you do on this quiz.

In the meantime... if these beautiful watercolor paintings made by our Kindergarten artists were billed as "Modern Art," I doubt anyone would question it.
