Arts & Activities,  April, 2001  

The National Gallery of Art's department of education resources has produced a new videodisc on the gallery's European collection. European Art from the National Gallery of Art offers a comprehensive view of the gallery's entire collection. The program presents art from the 14th through the 20th centuries, highlighting works by Rembrandt, Corot, Manet, Degas, Cezanne and more. The videodisc is available on loan for nine months, free of charge, to educational institutions, community groups and individuals, and complements the videodisc, American Art from the National Gallery of Art, also available on loan.

The archive for the European art videodisc contains over 2,800 images of individual works, each accompanied by identifying caption information and details. The disc is designed to accommodate a variety of interests and teaching techniques. Its flexibility allows viewers to move rapidly among widely separated images on the disc to create sequences that address their particular needs. To borrow these videodiscs or other educational materials, write to The National Gallery of Art, Department of Educational Resources, Education Division, 4th St. at Constitution Ave., NW, Washington, D.C. 20565, or visit the gallery's Web site: www.nga.gov/education.
