Description

This course aims to introduce students to the theoretical frameworks which form the basis for the conception of visual arts education as a distinctive field. Theoretical frameworks in art education will be explained as a largely discontinuous collection of histories. These histories are united by ruling paradigms many originating outside of the field in the human sciences, and in the practices of the visual arts. Examples include, psychoanalytical approaches to creativity, anthropological and socio-cultural studies, and cognitive theories.
