Activity Page


What to Do
Sometimes seeing two artworks side-by-side helps us notice things we might miss if we only looked at one. We've matched up pairs of artworks that we think create sparks when you look at them together. Some of the works are very similar and some are very different. As you view the sets,  compare and contrast the images. If you like, you can read a more complete description of the ideas behind this activity. Important: Did you read and understand the © Copyright Agreement?

Let's Get Started!
Pick one or more sets to look at more closely. Click on the table title, picture, or picture titles to go to the activity page for that Double Vision number. Once you are there, you will view the pictures, answer a few questions, and write a few sentences comparing and contrasting the images based on your assessment.
