Our Neighbours’ Understanding Of Art: A Class Field Study, Patricia Stuhr, Jeffrey Leptak
Our Neighbours’ Understanding Of Art: A Class Field Study, Patricia Stuhr, Jeffrey Leptak
Journal of Social Theory in Art Education
Most people believe that taste in art is highly individual, that one person’s opinion is as good as another. However, the literature on art and art education usually reflects the assumptions and values of the established authorities –art critics, historians, and aesthetic philosophers. It is assumed that, "With varying degrees of success, schools and colleges pass on a set of cultural values which reflect the dominant culture of society ... '" Jones, p. 135). Other institutions, such as museums, also promote these values. However, Johnson's study of socialization in art museum tours found that docents and visitors both emphasized the …

Editorial Re(Mark)! The Question Of Representation, Jan Jagodzinski
Editorial Re(Mark)! The Question Of Representation, Jan Jagodzinski
Journal of Social Theory in Art Education
As the perceptive, or should I say - receptive reader may not(e), no thumbprint appears in the margins of this years editorial-rather, an index finger 'figures' prominently. The index sign is particularly apropos for this issue for index signs give us dues to what is being represented. Deceivingly, they establish their meanings through a physical relationship to their referents. As Krauss puts it: "They are the marks or traces of a particular cause, and that cause is the thing to which they refer, the object they signify. Into the category of the index, we would place physical traces (like footprints), …
Creativity And Political Identification In The Work Of Herbert Read, David Thistlewood
Creativity And Political Identification In The Work Of Herbert Read, David Thistlewood
Journal of Social Theory in Art Education
The idea of a class conflict, in which a powerful minority subjugates the majority among other ways by depriving it of any sense of self-esteem deriving from worthwhile, original work - that is, by suppressing its creativity - was something Herbert Read acquired through his youthful involvement in the late stages of the Arts and Crafts Movement. It was a premise he was never seriously to question, as was the corresponding idea that to assert one's right to be creative was to engage in a political act. He was certain that artistic conventions were the means of suppression, and that …
Art Education And The Promotion Of Intercultural Understanding, F. Graeme Chalmers
Art Education And The Promotion Of Intercultural Understanding, F. Graeme Chalmers
Journal of Social Theory in Art Education
The comparative study of art, of response to art, and the production of art forms which matter can help us to understand each other. Art has always been a powerful force in shaping our vision of the world. We need to understand each other's vision and keep our own alive. We need to combat any art-for-art's-sake attitudes that may be entrenched in schools because it is a rather peculiar notion of art and one that deters a full understanding of the role of art in a variety of contexts and cultures. In contrast, art educators who view art as a …
The Promises Of Art Appreciation: The Foundations Of Aesthetic Education, Charles R. Jansen
The Promises Of Art Appreciation: The Foundations Of Aesthetic Education, Charles R. Jansen
Journal of Social Theory in Art Education
A history of appreciation could quickly multiply into a collection of histories, some tracing theories of appreciation as a phenomenon of mind and some tracing appreciation as a pedagogical subject or goal. In order to limit the directions a history of appreciation could take, this paper assumes that art appreciation in pedagogy encompasses and reflects various theories of art appreciation as a process of mind and thus focuses on the institutionalization of art appreciation.

The Limits Of Linear Modes Of Inquiry Into Naturalistic World-Views: A Case Study Of Cherokee Culture, Karen L. Sorensen, Charles G. Wieder
The Limits Of Linear Modes Of Inquiry Into Naturalistic World-Views: A Case Study Of Cherokee Culture, Karen L. Sorensen, Charles G. Wieder
Journal of Social Theory in Art Education
We begin with the cultural-anthropological assumption that a people’s world-view is based in concepts of time and process, and is reflected in the ceremonies, customs, rituals, and other traditional patterns of social conduct within the society. In a case study of the Native American Cherokee, linear modes of inquiry, characteristic of Western science, are shown to be limited in their capacity to examine and appreciate these dimensions of culture in pre-literate societies. It is suggested that those aspects of our own culture which are grounded in aesthetic value may also be relatively inaccessible for the same reason. By examining meanings …
Collecting Women’S Art And Native American Artificates: Issues For Museum Curators, John Wilton
Collecting Women’S Art And Native American Artificates: Issues For Museum Curators, John Wilton
Journal of Social Theory in Art Education
Egalitarianism is quite possibly the education buzzword of the eighties. Egalitarianism is belabored in the literature of late that it seems inconceivable that any person or institution with any degree of social responsibility has not yet acted to realign the programs and policies of our biased past. Yet many major social groups still remain disenfranchised in the current American cultural scenario. This commentary addresses the predicament of two of those groups-women and Native Americans. While seemingly unrelated, both groups share a common dilemma: their voices, their opinions and their expressions are not yet respected in the realm of art and …
Art Education In The Time Of Aids, Peter Schellin
Art Education In The Time Of Aids, Peter Schellin
Journal of Social Theory in Art Education
The health crisis which in recent years has depleted the ranks of the art community, has not received much formal notice in art education journals. A continuing stigma remains attached to AIDS due to its appearance among gay men and IV drug users. Many people pretend it is not there. My own life has become consumed by it, due to the illness of many, many friends and associates. For nearly two years, because of the enormity of the crisis combined with relatively little action on state and federal levels and the mounting grief and loss in my own life, I …
A Modernity-Postmodernity Dialectic On Men In Feminism, Karen A. Hamblen
A Modernity-Postmodernity Dialectic On Men In Feminism, Karen A. Hamblen
Journal of Social Theory in Art Education
In my discussion of men in feminism, I will focus on this topic in terms of art educators employed in higher education. My comments are based on the assumption that feminism and its attendant values, attitudes, and behaviors are seen as something that men, in some way, react to, adjust to, or, just plainly, take into consideration at this time in history. An ostensibly neutral stance is not possible - ignoring feminism is itself charged with value judgments. Questions, however, arise as to how an optimum state of sex equity and gender consciousness might occur and what relationships men would …
Feminism As Metaphor, Amy Brook Snider
Feminism As Metaphor, Amy Brook Snider
Journal of Social Theory in Art Education
When I was first invited to be on a panel discussing “Men in Feminism," my only thoughts on the topic were, "Sure, we need men in feminism. Feminism is a way of looking at the world, so why not!" But then I continued to myself how could I be a spokeswoman for men? Maybe only men are in a position to talk about the subject, Perhaps if I read the book. Men in Feminism, the selection of presentations from two sessions of an MLA Conference in 1984 which inspired this panel, I'd have more to say about the topic ... …
Queen-Of-The-Mountain: A Game I Can Play, Ken Marantz
Queen-Of-The-Mountain: A Game I Can Play, Ken Marantz
Journal of Social Theory in Art Education
From the top, let it be known that I was dragged into this arena, persuaded to participate only out of friendship for the organizers. My avowed reluctance was a function of genuine puzzlement about my ability to add any notions of substance to an already overloaded panel (I objected to the number of panelists, concerned about front-end overload) and to concerns which to these simple-minded ears are far too academic for me to understand.
The Not So Mysterious Ways Of Mystification, Georgia Collins
The Not So Mysterious Ways Of Mystification, Georgia Collins
Journal of Social Theory in Art Education
According to my reading of Men in Feminism, in the Modern Language Association, male interest in feminist issues is already considerable: MLA men lecture and write in the feminist mode; want to be acknowledged for doing so; and ask that discussions of male responsibilities and roles be placed on the feminist agendas. The task of defining roles for sympathetic males in what is otherwise understood to be a woman's “do-it-yourself" movement may be a real problem for our MLA sisters. But back in the NAEA, we have a different set of problems and, I would submit, a unique opportunity for …
On The Impossibility Of Men In Feminism: Taking A Hesitant Step Through The Minefield Of Pheminism In Art And Education, Jan Jagodzinski
On The Impossibility Of Men In Feminism: Taking A Hesitant Step Through The Minefield Of Pheminism In Art And Education, Jan Jagodzinski
Journal of Social Theory in Art Education
The relationship of men in pheminism is an impossible one. On the one hand, the "proposition" of the preposition is intrusive; it signifies break and enter with all the multiple meanings that this entails, from virginal to criminal reprochment. On the other hand, the “preposition" of the proposition is an illusionary one, both in its flirtatious invitation to men and in its very non-existence of being, for there is no inside nor outside. Men are "implicated” in this relationship by virtue of both their difference and indifference which lie on either side of the "membrane" that separates the sexes. In …
Acting Out Caring: An Andogynous Trait, Clayton Funk
Acting Out Caring: An Andogynous Trait, Clayton Funk
Journal of Social Theory in Art Education
A problem in gender studies concerns frequent critique of sex-role stereotypes. But how often do we analyze characteristics that men and women have in common? The notion is doubtful that women must be essentially nurturant and empathic, and that men must be analytical and assertive. The strongest educators possess the best of both, no matter the gender, and are usually capable of modeling a sensibility of caring about learning.

A Gender Exposition: Black And White Images In The Grey Chain Of Being, Jim Paul
A Gender Exposition: Black And White Images In The Grey Chain Of Being, Jim Paul
Journal of Social Theory in Art Education
It is interesting how the numerical demarcation of a decade spurs one to reflective stock-taking and visionary anticipation. We know that the beginning or termination of long-term social trends do not “naturally” fall into neat groups of tens. Still, as empirically-entrenched and categorically-minded consumers we must quench our never-ending thirst to link events until we have reduced them into man”age”ableness. We are more at ease when we can name where we have been and visualize where the future will be.
The Need For Openness In Art Education, Dan Nadaner
The Need For Openness In Art Education, Dan Nadaner
Journal of Social Theory in Art Education
Can art education tolerate art? It looks more and more like the answer is no. Art requires imagination, play, openness and critical questioning. Art education, as an institution, tends to produce practices inconsistent with imagination, play, openness, and critical questioning. The dominant practices of the field tend to define, to reify, to certify, to enshrine.

Journal of Social Theory in Art Education
This paper was an introduction to the mini-conference, “The Conference as Ritual: The Sacred Journey of the Art Educator,” organized by Harold Pearse, Cynthia Taylor and myself for the NAEA Convention in Los Angeles, April 1988. Art educators from Canada and the United States along with Dr. Michael Owen Jones, author and director of the Folklore and Mythology Center at UCLA (our non-participant observer) looked at our annual spring pilgrimage to various hotels in the United States from historical, psychological, philosophic, structural, and ethnographic perspectives. As the introduction to the mini-conference, my paper specifically recounts the ways that I, an …

Cultural Literacy As Social Empowerment, Laurie Hicks
Cultural Literacy As Social Empowerment, Laurie Hicks
Journal of Social Theory in Art Education
The concept of cultural literacy as a process of becoming socially empowered is developed. A comparison is made between “Getty-ized DBAE” with an approach to art education informed by the development of cultural literacy. How these approaches differ, not only in their design but in the fundamental goals which motivate and guide them is illustrated. An outline is presented of a pedagogical structure around which a cultural literacy approach to art education can be organized and implemented.

The Meaning(S) Of Lens Meaning, Michael Emme
The Meaning(S) Of Lens Meaning, Michael Emme
Journal of Social Theory in Art Education
As a photographer and an art educator, I want to come to a better understanding of how lens images (photographs, film and television) convey meaning. This is not a trivial or purely academic concern. Recently media educator David Trend has observed that “media studies of any kind are virtually nonexistent in elementary and secondary schools. Yet serious studies of film, photography, and video are need most in these latter areas, as students encounter powerful mechanisms of socialization that will follow them the rest of their lives…Without a pedagogical imperative, the broader mission of progressive culture stands in jeopardy” (Trend, 1988, …
Toward Foundations For A Socially Critical Art Education, Paul Duncum
Toward Foundations For A Socially Critical Art Education, Paul Duncum
Journal of Social Theory in Art Education
Significant recent developments in Australian art education have moved away from a consideration of the aesthetic value of fine art products to a broad sociological conception of the visual arts which includes folk and popular arts. Many art educators assume a socially functionalist approach which celebrates cultural diversity and attempts to describe the function of cultural artifacts, sometimes in terms of lived experience. While acknowledging the importance of these developments, the author adopts the view that cultural production is part of an unjust society in ferment and is a site of ideological struggle. The view advanced is that to be …
A Study Of The 1988 Naea And Its Accessibility To Delegates Experiencing Disabilities, Doug Blandy
A Study Of The 1988 Naea And Its Accessibility To Delegates Experiencing Disabilities, Doug Blandy
Journal of Social Theory in Art Education
People experiencing disabilities are no longer content to be treated as victims, objects of pity, and passive recipients of charitable impulses. They are aggressively and actively brining discriminatory policies and environments to the public’s attention. This activity is based on newer definitions of disability that do not associate disabilities with individuals, but with policies and environments that fail individuals. This article documents a study of the 1988 National Art Education Association Convention for its accessibility to delegates experiencing auditory, visual, speech, and physical disabilities. The convention and aspects of the convention program are analyzed through the use of guidelines from …
Dbae And Clae, Nancy Johnson
Dbae And Clae, Nancy Johnson
Journal of Social Theory in Art Education
The foundations upon which knowledge is organized and presented in both discipline-based and cultural literacy approaches to art education are addressed. It is argued that the foundations for these two approaches are a result of conflicting views on the standardization of curricula and the perceived need for achievement oriented evaluation; these in turn are reflective of a fundamental difference in beliefs and assumptions as to the nature of education.
