This volume has been brought together to generate new ideas and
provoke discussion about what constitutes arts education in the
twenty-first century, both within the institution and beyond. Art,
Artists and Pedagogy is intended for educators who teach the arts
from early childhood to tertiary level, artists working in the
community, or those studying arts in education from undergraduate
to Masters or PhD level. From the outset, this book is not only
about arts in practice but also about what distinguishes the 'arts'
in education. Exploring two different philosophies of education,
the book asks what the purpose of the arts is in education in the
twenty-first century. With specific reference to the work of Gert
Biesta, questions are asked as to the relation of the arts to the
world and what kind of society we may wish to envisage. The second
philosophical set of ideas comes from Deleuze and Guattari, looking
in more depth at how we configure art, the artist and the role
played by the state and global capital in deciding on what art
education has become. This book provides educators with new ways to
engage with arts, focusing specifically on art, music, dance, drama
and film studies. At a time when many teachers are looking for a
means to re-assert the role of the arts in education this text
provides many answers with reference to case studies and in-depth
arguments from some of the world's leading academics in the arts,
philosophy and education.
