This is another challenge which appeals to me. Joining involves reading at least six books about art history this year - fiction or non-fiction. You can make a list or read according to your whim - I think that I'll do the latter!
It really isn't fair, since I would do the art history reading anyhow. But I thought that I would check the breadth and depth (or otherwise) of my own reading this year.
1. John Whitely, Oxford and the Pre-Raphaelites 2. Museum of Modern Art Heide, The Ned Kelly Paintings 3. SN Behrman, Duveen 4. Stanley Young, The Missions of California 5. Harriet Edquist, Pioneers of Modernism: Arts and Crafts Movement in Australia. 6. Patricia Macdonald, Exiles and Emigrants.
Two of those books look especially interesting, Hels: Oxford and the Pre-Raphaelites and Pioneers of Modernism.
I generally read historical biographies, so this challenge will encourage me to read art history instead. I am very interested in the topic so I'll enjoy it.
You can read fiction related to art history as well.

You're certainly well on the way with six! :)
