Synopsis

 
 
      What is involved in "making art"? In what ways have Americans
        introduced art making to students? In Art Making and Education, a
        practicing artist and a historian of art education discuss from their
        particular perspectives the production of studio and classroom art. Among
        those to whom this book will appeal are prospective teachers, school administrators,
        university-level art educators, and readers interested in the theory of
        discipline-based art education.
      "The sources are excellent. The bibliographical material is a must
        for any candidate wanting to teach the visual arts and certainly for any
        student hoping to become an artist."
        -- William Klenk, University of Rhode Island
