Chapters 3&4 of "Advice to Young Artists in a Postmodern Era"

Chapter 3 talks about the teacher and how most students come in either saying they know everything and thinking the teacher wont be able to enhance what they already know. I can think of some people in my class who are exactly like this. The other type of student they talk about is the one who relies fully on the teacher to tell them everything, how to do it, what to do, everything. I am a little more like this only because this is my first time to ever do photography. However i do ask a lot of the other students in my class for help and in order to get ideas I'm always looking up artists and looking at their work.

Chapter 4 talks about putting older type art and making it compliment and work with todays work or more modern art. I'm still trying to figure out how to do this, however.
