[Art Matters] really connects students to the importance of art and helps them appreciate the way art reflects its time and culture. Starting with the controversy of Maya Lin's Vietnam Memorial [in Chapter 1] really intrigues all of the students and sets them up for understanding different points of view with art right away."
