No. 252 Teaching Art And So On
By Edmund Burke Feldman. NAEA's newest addition to its Noted Scholar
Series. His insights: On Art Theory— "I think theory should have a
shelf-life of at
least a generation; it should be valid for a longer period than it
takes to write a dissertation; and it should be the product of
mature reflection upon the art created
in many climes, at many times, by many peoples. Most important, art
education theory should be centered on processes that lead to, or
flow from, the
production of visual images. In other words, leave the brain
physiology to neuroanatomists." On Technology— "Educators tend to
think that when a new kind
of hardware comes along it should be incorporated somehow into our
instructional delivery system. But that, I fear, is a rather
simple-minded way to respond to
a new technology. Thus far, teaching with computers has not
accomplished much that matters; watching films instead of reading
books does not solve our basic
educational problems; and substituting photography for drawing makes
little sense from an artistic standpoint."
