Contemporary art is characterized by novelty and strangeness. In the research of art education, it is an essential step to know and understand contemporary art phenomena. Extracting the appropriate content of contemporary art and introducing it into the curriculum resources of art education is not only a great supplement to the content and resources of art education, but also can inject new vitality into art education, stimulate students' enthusiasm for learning, improve their enthusiasm for active learning and promote their all-round development.

Extended data:

1, to stimulate children's interest in learning

At present, most of the children's art education classes in China focus on painting teaching. Although many regions and schools have adopted multimedia and other teaching tools to assist teaching, the teaching content still has some limitations and the teaching methods are not novel enough.

Many children's art teachers ignore students' subjective initiative, and students are in a state of passively accepting knowledge for a long time, which leads to a lack of enthusiasm in learning. Introducing contemporary art into children's art class, colorful art forms can broaden children's horizons, stimulate children's interest in actively learning contemporary art and culture, subtly stimulate children's artistic creation inspiration, and improve students' artistic appreciation level and aesthetic ability.

2, improve the efficiency of classroom teaching

Contemporary art does not stick to a single form of expression, but breaks through the limitations of traditional art and pays attention to innovation and working ideas. In the aspect of drawing materials for works of art, it gives creators a broad space, and the content of art is closer to daily life, which narrows the distance between art and life, allowing more people to get in touch with art and understand it, and get inspiration and sentiment from it.

The integration of contemporary art and children's art education is helpful for teachers to explain artistic knowledge in combination with real life in the teaching process. On the basis of students' perceptual knowledge, we can better understand art works and stimulate children's subjective initiative, so as to improve the efficiency of art class and create more excellent art works.
