Foreword Art and design education are part of a comprehensive Pre-K-12 education for all students. The Wisconsin Department of Public Instruction continues its efforts to support the skill and knowledge development for our students across the state in all content areas. This guide is meant to support this work as well as foster additional reflection on the instructional framework that will most effectively support students’ learning in art and design through creative practices. This document represents a new direction for art education, identifying a more in-depth review of art and design education. The most substantial change involves the definition of art and design education as the study of visual thinking – including design, visual communications, visual culture, and fine/studio art. The guide provides local, statewide, and national examples in each of these areas to the reader. The overall framework offered suggests practice beyond traditional modes and instead promotes a more constructivist approach to learning.

  • The American Abstract Artists and Their Appropriation of Prehistoric Rock Pictures in 1937
    “First Surrealists Were Cavemen”: The American Abstract Artists and Their Appropriation of Prehistoric Rock Pictures in 1937 Elke Seibert How electrifying it must be to discover a world of new, hitherto unseen pictures! Schol- ars and artists have described their awe at encountering the extraordinary paintings of Altamira and Lascaux in rich prose, instilling in us the desire to hunt for other such discoveries.1 But how does art affect art and how does one work of art influence another? In the following, I will argue for a causal relationship between the 1937 exhibition Prehis- toric Rock Pictures in Europe and Africa shown at the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) and the new artistic directions evident in the work of certain New York artists immediately thereafter.2 The title for one review of this exhibition, “First Surrealists Were Cavemen,” expressed the unsettling, alien, mysterious, and provocative quality of these prehistoric paintings waiting to be discovered by American audiences (fig. ).1 3 The title moreover illustrates the extent to which American art criticism continued to misunderstand sur- realist artists and used the term surrealism in a pejorative manner. This essay traces how the group known as the American Abstract Artists (AAA) appropriated prehistoric paintings in the late 1930s. The term employed in the discourse on archaic artists and artistic concepts prior to 1937 was primitivism, a term due not least to John Graham’s System and Dialectics of Art as well as his influential essay “Primitive Art and Picasso,” both published in 1937.4 Within this discourse the art of the Ice Age was conspicuous not only on account of the previously unimagined timespan it traversed but also because of the magical discovery of incipient human creativity.

The State of Art Criticism presents an international conversation among art historians and critics that considers the relation between criticism and art history, and poses the question of whether criticism may become a university subject. Participants include Dave Hickey, James Panero, Stephen Melville, Lynne Cook, Michael Newman, Whitney Davis, Irit Rogoff, Guy Brett, and Boris Groys. James Elkins is E.C. Chadbourne Chair in the Department of Art History, Theory, and Criticism at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago.

  • Art Appreciation Art Criticism
    Art Criticism Well……..? That’s why Critical Thinking matters…..in its broadest sense it can be described as purposeful reflective judgment concerning what to believe or what to do. I don’t know anything about art, but I know what I like. And I really don’t need a class to help me with this... Taste Taste Taste as an aesthetic, sociological, economic and anthropological concept refers to cultural patterns of choice and preference regarding aesthetic judgments. What determines aesthetic judgments? Is it really just a function of our biases? And why should we even care about things we don’t like ? Well, for one…..because art exists for more than one subgroup or individual…. Art is part of our Public (shared) Experience ART is reflective of the HUMAN EXPERIENCE…good and bad. Edvard Munch, “The Scream” 1893, National Gallery, Oslo Norway. ART is not just for interior design and we are not just “CONSUMERS”! …..and this is why Museums and Galleries are so important. ITS GOOD TO GET OUT OF THE HOUSE and AWAY FROM THE MARKETERS!!! AND REMEMBER What are our VALUES • Personal Values • Political Values • Cultural Values • Sub-Cultural Values • Class Values • National Values • Religious Values • Spiritual Values ART IS POWERFUL The reason art can please, is also because it can displease….. ART IS POWERFUL …. it can alternately challenge or reinforce the value system of any given culture. It is one of many place where a peoples discovers who they wish to be…. ART and BEAUTY Art can be beautiful. But what is Beauty? Who gets to decide? ART and BEAUTY Art should comfort the disturbed and disturb the comfortable! It has MANY purposes.

  • Using Art Criticism to Engage Students in Writing
    Using Art Criticism to Engage Students in Writing Allen Trent and Pete Moran University of Wyoming Abstract: This article describes using art criticism, a process the authors define as “viewing, thinking, talking, and writing about art,” to engage students in writing. The authors provide theoretical support for art criticism in education, describe the process, and share ways it can be used to address Common Core writing and other content area standards. They also share a sample art criticism lesson taught to fourth graders and include a summary of student learning data documenting student engagement and learning aligned with targeted standards. The article ends with suggestions for using art criticism, finding and using accessible art criticism resources, and integrating art criticism writing with other content areas. “I know what it is. Art criticism is writin’ bad stuff about people’s art!” This response was from a fourth grader, but we have heard similar responses from many students and teachers over the years. While logical, especially considering the common meaning of “criticism,” it is a misconception. Barrett, an art criticism theorist who has devoted his career to translating the process into educational contexts, explains that art criticism is a generally positive endeavor. Critics write about art “because they love it and see it as a valuable phenomenon in the world… Critics do not always agree with the art that is made, but they enjoy thinking about it” (Barrett, 2000, p. 2). Art criticism is the process of viewing, thinking, talking, and writing about art, and as teachers, we have found using the process to be a positive, effective way to engage students in meaningful conversations and writing.

    Revista Argentina de Clínica Psicológica 2020, Vol. XXIX, N°2, 957-962 957 DOI: 10.24205/03276716.2020.334 VISUAL COGNITION AND AESTHETICS OF PAINTING LAYOUT: AN ANALYSIS BASED ON EVENT RELATED POTENTIAL SIGNALS Defeng Song*, Meixin Li Abstract In recent years, visual aesthetics, especially the painting aesthetics, has become a hot topic in aesthetic research. However, asesthetic psychologists have not paid enough attention to the layout of paintings. Therefore, this paper explores the aesthetic psychological mechanism of painting layout based on event related potential (ERP) signals. With eight paintings as the stimuli, the ERP signals of subjects were measured and analyzed to reveal their psychological mechanism in the appreciation of painting layout. The results show that, during the aesthetic process, the left and right brain regions differ greatly in the ERP activities, and the ERP waveforms reflect the subjective preferences; the subjects majoring in art pay high attention to the layout of the entire painting, and have strong ERP signals for paintings with aesthetic regularity. The research results shed new light on the visual cognition and aesthetics of works of art. Key words: Event Related Potential (ERP) Signals, Aesthetics, Psychological Mechanism, Layout.
