Sažetak
Teaching Visual Arts, as outlined in the curriculum of art education, largely affects the development of children’s cognitive and motor skills. It encourages pupils’ divergent thinking and develops abstract and critical thinking. Art teaching assumes various aspects of visual art education as the understanding of art, visual abilities and skills, cognition of artworks and visualart communication, all of which are meant to create artistic taste as a part of general knowledge. Pupils’ cognition of artwork is based on the understanding of visual language by active observation and through experience of artworks through primary education.This paper discusses the influence of different factors (parental education and pupils’ abilities) on the preferences of pupils in junior primary school. Through exploring the connection between pupils’ general abilities and their visual preferences, we have found that pupils’ abilities do not
affect the preferences of certain artworks, while also determining that parental education is not an important factor of pupils’ preferences.
