Knowing how symbols work, they'll decipher clues in Frida Kahlo's self-portrait. Understanding surrealism, they'll decide for themselves what Joan Miró's doodles are all about. And with some insight into the stories behind classical sculptures, they'll discover that antiquity wasn't as gray and boring as it might seem. Along the way, they'll learn about a diverse range of artists from around the world and art movements throughout history.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eWith its bold and irreverent approach, \u003cem\u003eHow to Be an Art Rebel\u003c\/em\u003e is the perfect demonstration that art is way more fun than adults make it sound.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAbout the Author\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003ci\u003eStreet, Ben:\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e - \u003cstrong\u003eBen Street\u003c\/strong\u003e is an art historian, lecturer, and writer.
