Living Histories is a collection of new scholarship that explores
histories of art education through a series of international
contexts. The first truly international text highlighting histories
of art education, with contributions from over 30 scholars based in
18 countries. Art education holds an important role in promoting
historical awareness of the multiple relations that connect
pedagogic inquiry with culture, heritage, place and identity,
locally and globally. To keep pace with the movements of art and
society, Garnet and Sinner consider that art education requires
more inclusive and holistic versions of history from transnational
perspectives that break down barriers and cross borders in the
pursuit of more informed and diverse understandings of the field.
The broad focus of this edited collection is to provide both new
perspectives of art education from around the world, and to
introduce transnationalism into the field as a way to conceptualize
the entanglements of historical research in our globalized age.
Transnational histories of art education focus on the linkages and
flows that shift focus away from the nation-state to other
transnational actors such as individuals, communities, institutions
and/or organizations. Contributions from scholars and educators
based and working in Australia, Austria, Brazil, Canada, Colombia,
Croatia, Czech Republic, Finland, India, Iran, Japan, Malta, South
Africa, Spain, Trinidad and Tobago, UK, USA and Zimbabwe. Includes
chapters that adapt an approach of 'artwork histories' to explore
the legacies of art education as an anticipatory mode of historical
thinking and practice across the visual arts and sites of art
education. The book offers an opportunity for authentic engagement
and intellectual risk, which includes the rejection of 'correct'
interpretations of historical problems. As active agents, art
education historians are not passive collectors of the past, but
engaged in new ways of doing history predicated on cultivating
stories that move beyond representation to attend to aesthetic
dimensions that bridge historiography, material culture, oral
history, art history and teacher education. Living Histories
provides an interpretation of historical thinking and consciousness
through the interrelations of time and space to provoke critical
and creative practices in education. This is the latest book in the
Artwork Scholarship series, which aims to invite debate on, and
provide an essential resource for transnational scholars engaged
in, creative research involving visual, literary and performative
arts. With contributors from 18 countries, this book will have a
substantial international readership among art educators and those
interested in the history of art education, primarily in
universities and colleges. It will also be particularly useful for
graduate students. It will also appeal to scholars in arts
education more broadly - music education, dance education, theatre
education scholars, cultural and art historians, art theorists,
international educators, and curators.
