About
AN ALTERNATIVE CULTURAL DAYBOOK
A R T L▼R K is work in progress. Its creators are art historians who met whilst completing their doctorates and have dreamed up a creative project like this ever since. We eventually launched our site in September 2013 after months of researching, organising and perfecting the material we wanted to publish. The idea for the blog is quite simple: one article each day celebrating important happenings in the history of culture and bringing it to the reader as entertainment, discussion board or study platform. Welcome and enjoy!

Thank you!

Hello,
We are a not-for-profit educational organization founded by Mortimer Adler and we have recently made an exciting discovery—three years after writing the wonderfully expanded third edition of How to Read a Book, Mortimer Adler and Charles Van Doren made a series of thirteen 14-minute videos—lively discussing the art of reading. The videos were produced by Encyclopaedia Britannica. For reasons unknown, sometime after their original publication, these videos were lost.
Three hours with Mortimer Adler and Charles Van Doren, lively discussing the art of reading, on one DVD. A must for all readers, libraries and classroom teaching the art of reading.
I cannot exaggerate how instructive these programs are—we are so sure that you will agree, if you are not completely satisfied, we will refund your donation.
Please go here to see a clip and learn more:

So I have been able to read through some of your posts – and I am so glad you helped me find your blog – because I have always been interested in learning more about art, but didn’t know where to begin. You blog is very informative and interesting. It is clear that each post has been created painstakingly with authentic research. Well – I am a journalist so I know what goes into that kind of detailed work.
I feel lucky to have made this connection with your work on the second day of creating my blog.
I love the idea of daily posts based on the dates. The unpredictability and variety which this format brings makes the reading and learning experience all the more exciting. Good job !!
Best wishes
