Is an artist-teacher a mere professional who balances a
career--or does the duality of making and teaching art merit a more
profound investigation? Rejecting a conventional understanding of
the artist-teacher, this book sets out to present a robust history
from the classical era to the twenty-first century. Particular
pedagogical portraits--featuring George Wallis, Walter Gropius,
Johannes Itten, Victor Pashmore, Richard Hamilton, Arthur Wesley
Dow, and Hans Hofmann--illustrate the artist-teacher in various
contexts. This book offers a revelation of the complex thinking
processes artists utilize when teaching, and a reconciliation of
the artistic and educational enterprises as complimentary
partners.
Teens interested in preparing for a career in the arts will find
this introductory resource invaluable as it is the first book to
guide them long before they apply to college or seek a position in
their field. Whether they would like to become actors or
filmmakers, artists, architects, dancers, musicians or singers,
photographers, or writers, this book will show them how to do so.
For each of the arts, an overview of the career, training, and a
discussion of related careers is provided, along with lists of
books, web sites, and organizations for further information.
Sections directed to parents and teachers of the teens, with advice
on how to support and encourage teens in their careers, are also
included. Teens wanting to gain an edge in their craft by
practicing and preparing early will find a wealth of information:
advice from experts in each field provide an inside look on what
skills are necessary for the twenty-first century. Suggestions for
building discipline are provided, such as keeping a writing or
sketching journal, and finding the proper trainers in music, dance,
and acting. Contests and other opportunities that teens can submit
work to or apply for auditions are provided, along with an
extensive list of books, trade journals, Web sites, and
professional and non-professional organizations. Using the
resources in this book will ensure teens are experienced and
well-prepared in their art form when they apply to college or other
professional training and seek positions in their field.
