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.
Introduction(S) To Men In Feminism, Kristin G. Congdon, Doug Blandy
Introduction(S) To Men In Feminism, Kristin G. Congdon, Doug Blandy
Journal of Social Theory in Art Education
In the Spring of 1988 I received a note from Doug Blandy asking if I wanted to co-ordinate a panel on "Men in Feminism" with him. The idea of men working with feminist ideas was not new to our discussions. When we worked together at Bowling Green State University, we often wondered (and indeed frequently laughed) at how gender related the reactions of our faculty and students probably were to our successes and failures. Shortly after I agreed to coordinate this panel with Doug, I attended a conference in the Pennsylvanian mountains in "Women, Art and Society." This was my …

Examining Environmental Advertising Imagery Through Art Education, Tom Anderson
Examining Environmental Advertising Imagery Through Art Education, Tom Anderson
Journal of Social Theory in Art Education
This is an examination of advertising imagery in the United States, with particular emphasis on outdoor advertising, and a proposal for an art curriculum focused on advertising awareness. The method is socially-oriented art criticism funded by some history of advertising and the psychology and philosophy of persuasive, manipulative, and pecuniary symbolism. The intent is first to decode the aesthetic environment (Barbosa, 1988) and then present a structure that helps art students to do the same. The examination begins with the object and returns to the object for validation (Ecker and Kaelin, 1970), but "ends with an understanding of personal experience, …
Sandra Rowe: Androgyny And The Janusian Split, Charles Gaines
Sandra Rowe: Androgyny And The Janusian Split, Charles Gaines
Journal of Social Theory in Art Education
The work of Sandra Rowe cannot be understood within the specific concerns of social/political discourse alone. Indeed, her subject matter suggests a deeper, more complex polemic. Rowe is interested in the postmodern controversy surrounding the nature of the subject, i.e., she is not only questioning the centralized and linear notion of subject as constructed by modernist discourse, but in fact positing an abstract notion of the subject, a theory of "lack" or "absence'" that stands as the privileged object of her investigation. The issues raised by her work are not important because of their social commentary alone, but also because …
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 …

Here’S Looking At Us Looking At Us, Amy Brook Snider
Here’S Looking At Us Looking At Us, Amy Brook Snider
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 …

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.
The Reality Construction Of Technocratic Rationality Through Dbae, Karen A. Hamblen
The Reality Construction Of Technocratic Rationality Through Dbae, Karen A. Hamblen
Journal of Social Theory in Art Education
The importance of differentiating between a discipline-based approach to art education and the prescribed DBAE curricular structure and goals presented by the Getty Center for Education in the Arts is developed. It is proposed that the Getty’s reliance on the characteristics of contemporary general education for the theoretical foundations of DBAE is restrictive and contributes to technocratic rationalism in art education, and disallows the development of cultural literacy.
Dbae And Clae: Relevance For Minority And Multicultural Students, Barbara Boyer
Dbae And Clae: Relevance For Minority And Multicultural Students, Barbara Boyer
Journal of Social Theory in Art Education
The importance of art programming which reflects, and is responsive to the diverse needs of students in a multicultural society is examined. It is argued that the DBAE fails to consider the increasing diversity among the population of our schools in the prescription of standardized and achievement oriented curricula. It is further claimed that CLAE offers an alternative to DBAE which promotes sensitivity to the cultural make-up of our classrooms.
Outsiders And Taboo Subjects: The Horseflies Of Art Education, Karen A. Hamblen
Outsiders And Taboo Subjects: The Horseflies Of Art Education, Karen A. Hamblen
Journal of Social Theory in Art Education
Both individuals and groups may take on outsider status depending on the extent they deviate from social norms and the extent they act as critics of society. In this paper, the role of art education outsider individuals and groups and the taboo subjects they discuss are examined in relationship to the norms of the policy-making institutions of art education. It is proposed that not only are outsiders necessary for maintain the health and integrity of the field, but also that outsider status might be considered a desired state of being in that it allows individuals to exercise choices and freedoms …
Conference As Ritual: Structures For The Unsavage Mind, Ronald N. Macgregor
Conference As Ritual: Structures For The Unsavage Mind, Ronald N. Macgregor
Journal of Social Theory in Art Education
Anthropologists like Victor Turner and Edward Bruner focus their attention on the experience of experiencing. Their approach is to make an initial distinction between behavior, which is noted in other people, and experience, which is personally felt. It is a germane distinction, for anthropologists of their persuasion are more inclined to describe how it felt to be there, rather than what went on. Their stance is closer to phenomenology than to ethnography, and their efforts are concentrated on what gave the occasion its special flavor, its extraordinary character. Their approach suits my present purpose admirably, since my question is, What …
Conferences And Communitas: Making Magic Happen… Sometimes, Brent Wilson
Conferences And Communitas: Making Magic Happen… Sometimes, Brent Wilson
Journal of Social Theory in Art Education
The field of art education hardly qualifies as a tribal society. Nevertheless, there are some “tribal” analogies that might be made as we study our customs and conventions, our mores and mutations, and the sources of our symbols and sillinesses. Indeed, our annual conferences are fitting subjects for anthropological analyses. And although I haven’t filled my sketchbooks with notes and drawings of our National Art Education Association Conventions with ethnographic studies in mind, in retrospect they just might serve that purpose. What do my notes and my memories tell us about these yearly meetings of the tribe? What planned purposes …
Subjective Undercurrents: Humour And The Naea, Harold Pearse
Subjective Undercurrents: Humour And The Naea, Harold Pearse
Journal of Social Theory in Art Education
The psychological climate of an NAEA conference is a highly variable one. Given the temporal and spatial restrictions, emotions tend to be intense and feelings concentrated. A good deal of what is felt is predictable – after all, conferences are call conventions. But beneath the surface veneer of officiousness, formality, and collegiality, there are subjective undercurrents. The novices experience loneliness, insecurity and feelings of inadequacy being surrounded by “experts” – people whose publications they have read or with whose names they are familiar. The experts may experience anxiety and insecurity as their egos, careers and reputations are exposed to public …
Altered States: Sexuality And The Naea, Cynthia Taylor
Altered States: Sexuality And The Naea, Cynthia Taylor
Journal of Social Theory in Art Education
My very first NAEA conference was in San Francisco; I had left the grey, bleak, rock-bound landscape of Nova Scotia far, far behind and I was transported, magically to another world where daisy trees bloomed, where spring was in the air and in my step, where every moment, every corner was rife with potential…Anything could happen! Once in the hotel I realized, immediately, that all around me there were rituals being enacted; cries and murmurs bespoke the onset of familiar and well-beloved rites; men and women gathered, acknowledge one another with calls and cluckings, embraced even while their eyes drifted, …
The Path Of The Initiate: In Search Of The Holy Grail Or Is It The Golden Fleece?, Jan Jagodzinski
The Path Of The Initiate: In Search Of The Holy Grail Or Is It The Golden Fleece?, Jan Jagodzinski
Journal of Social Theory in Art Education
This was an irreverent/irrelevant staged performance wherein a schizophrenic Voice was presented through a dialogue that answered Itself as It moved from one side of a table to the other, speaking at Itself, sometimes to Itself. The audience was physically separated from the performer in a classical fashion: stage and audience. One end represented the Voice of personal memories as an initiate into conference life; the other end represented the jaded view of a Voice who bitterly questions the entire ritual. A tie was put on and taken off as the performer moved from one side of the table to …
Self-Reflections In Organizations: An Outsider Remarks On Looking At Culture And Lore From The Inside, Michael Owen Jones
Self-Reflections In Organizations: An Outsider Remarks On Looking At Culture And Lore From The Inside, Michael Owen Jones
Journal of Social Theory in Art Education
As apparent from the title of my remarks, I am an outsider to this organization. I teach folklore courses at UCLA, which is one of five institutions in North America offering both the M.A. and Ph.D. degrees in the study of folklore. I have been asked to speak in this session, in part because I give courses on folk art, aesthetics, fieldwork, and organizational culture and symbolism. As an outsider, as a researcher of organizational culture, and as the final speaker in this session, it seems to be my role to suggest a larger framework of study to which this …
An Open Letter To Members Of The Caucus, Jan Jagodzinski
An Open Letter To Members Of The Caucus, Jan Jagodzinski
Journal of Social Theory in Art Education
In the last Caucus Newsletter, we announced the results of the poll about the name of the Bulletin of the Caucus on Social Theory and Art Education. Of thirteen responses received, ten supported the change from Bulletin to Journal. There were six votes against the introduction of an additional word and flavor into the title: two because they did not like the esoteric nature of the suggested word(s); two because they did not want a greater length to the title. One suggested reducing the name to the Bulletin/Journal on Social Theory and Art Education. Of the seven who voted favorably, …

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.
