Art, Culture, and Ethnicity - 2nd Edition

History & Criticism

<p>In recent years there has been increased discussion regarding the study of material culture within art education, yet more conversation about the collaborative alignment of these areas needs to occur. This book provides a forum and focal point for such exchange. Seventeen chapters address theoretical and practical issues, ideas, and questions related to the study of and teaching about a wide range of objects and expressions in our contemporary world. The readership of this book within art education includes those working in higher education, K-12 art teachers, preservice art teachers, graduate students in art education, museum educators, and art educators working in community-based settings. The audience outside art education may include, but is not limited to, individuals active in museum studies, anthropology, American Studies, folklore, popular culture, media studies, history, art history, and curriculum development and classroom instruction within various subject areas. Matter Matters provides readers with theoretical perspectives and practical instructional ideas related to teaching about and through objects and expressions from the surrounding world. The book is divided into two primary sections: Theoretical Perspectives on Material Culture and Art Education, and Practical Application of Material Culture Studies within Art Education.</p>

Conversations in Art: The Dialectics of Teaching and Learning

In an innovative, decade-long project, experienced art educators recorded teachers engaging with students, and later reviewed and critiqued these recordings to compile "snapshots" of classroom life unlike any documented before. This resource is for art teachers and researchers who realize the importance of thinking "outside the box" to grapple with the serious issues and rhetorical definitions clouding the practice of art education. Conversations in Art is the work of the Research Task Force on Student Learning, a core group of 20 professional art educators whose diversity of experiences and backgrounds enriched the insights and perspectives, and culminated in the unique personal reflections and writing styles of this lively and engaging resource. For those interested less in traditional forms of school-based inquiry and more in obtaining a deeper understanding of what a group of selected art educators thought about what they did and why, and how this shaped their philosophy and teaching practice.
