Does anyone know where I can find simple (level I or II beginner) readings on artists such as Kahlo, Rivera, Dalí and Picasso?

madrededos, this book has several one-page articles on artists, followed by reading comprehension questions. I can read them by looking up unfamiliar words so you may be able to as well. The comprehension questions will help you decipher the words in their context as well as teaching you other clues such as suffixes. The book's author discourages resorting to the dictionary too quickly though I sometimes do that anyway if I'm really stuck with a word.

The artists included in the book are Frida Kahlo, Pablo Picasso, Salvador Dali, and Fernando Botero. There are some other artists mentioned as well as poems about art in the section called "El Arte."

I don't think you can download it. Print only, as far as I know. - revmaf, Aug 7, 2010
