How are the arts important in young people s lives? Youth, Arts
and Education offers a groundbreaking theory of arts education.
Anna Hickey-Moody explores how the arts are ways of belonging,
resisting, being governed and being heard.
Through examples from the United Kingdom and Australia, Anna
Hickey-Moody shows the cultural significance of the kinds of
learning that occur in and through arts. Drawing on the thought of
Gilles Deleuze, she develops the theory of affective pedagogy,
which explains the process of learning that happens through
aesthetics.
Bridging divides between critical pedagogical theory, youth
studies and arts education scholarship, this book:
- Explains the cultural significance of the kinds of learning
that occur in and through arts
- Advances a theory of aesthetic citizenship created by youth
arts
- Demonstrates ways in which arts practices are forms popular and
public pedagogy
- Critiques popular ideas that art can be used to fix problems in
the lives of youth at risk
Youth, Arts and Education is the first post-critical theory of
arts education. It will be of interest to students and scholars
across the social sciences and humanities, in particular in the
sociology of education, arts education, youth studies, sociology of
the arts and cultural studies."
