I intend to post here in these years of my late adulthood(60-80) and old age(80++), if I last that long. I have posted several times at this site in the last few months. I have taught: (a) the sociology of art in Tasmania and (b) art history in some of the history courses in which I have been the teacher. I am no expert in the field of art, but take a general interest in the field. Here is some of my academic background for those interested and for those who come across my comments at this site in the months and years to come.-Ron Price, Australia:hugsmile:
