Abstract

At the heart of all good art museum teaching is an effort to bring people and artworks together in meaningful ways. But what constitutes an experience of a work of art? What should be taught and why? What kinds of uniquely valuable experiences are museum educators alone equipped to provide? This book?unlike any other publication currently available?addresses these and myriad other questions and investigates the mission, history, theory, practice, and future prospects of museum education. Every critical issue that has preoccupied the profession throughout its hundred-year history is considered, including lecture- versus conversation-based formats; the place of information in gallery teaching; the relation of art museum teaching to the disciplines of art history, curation, and conservation; the use of questions to stimulate discussion; and the role of playfulness, self-awareness, and institutional context in constructing the visitor?s experience.The book will prove invaluable for all professional museum educators and volunteer docents as well as museum studies students, art and art history teachers, curators, and museum administrators. The essays distill the authors? decades of experience as practitioners and observers of gallery teaching across the United States and abroad. They offer a range of perspectives on which everyone involved with art museum education may reflect and in so doing, encourage education to take its proper place at the center of the twenty-first century art museum.

Abstract

Dans la plupart des pays, l'éducation artistique n'est pas à l'abri d'une réorganisation à grande échelle. Les établissements d'enseignement sont de plus en plus tenus de fonctionner comme des entreprises, en concurrence pour les meilleurs étudiants ou le plus grand nombre d'entre eux, et d'exprimer leurs objectifs en termes financiers. Bref, le domaine de l'éducation est devenu un marché, préoccupé de quantification et de mesurabilité. Mais l'éducation artistique est-elle vraiment mesurable, si la qualité de l'art ne l'est pas, ou à peine? Et est-il productif de traiter les étudiants comme s'ils étaient des clients sur un marché concurrentiel?Dans Teaching Art in the Neoliberal Realm, les théoriciens et les enseignants analysent le cynisme de ce marché de l'éducation néolibéralisé, en soulignant les alternatives possibles qui sont intrinsèques aux besoins et aux caractéristiques de l'éducation artistique. Ils le font avec un sens frappant du réalisme. In most countries art education is not immune from a large-scale reorganization. Educational institutions are increasingly required to operate as enterprises that compete for the best or the largest number of students and to express their objective and results in financial and management terms. In short, the field of education has become a 'market'. 'Teaching Art in the Neoliberal Realm' investigates the effects of this setup on the content and practice of artistic education and the position of art and the artist.
