9781330684504: Theory and Practice of Teaching Art (Classic Reprint)

Synopsis

Excerpt from Theory and Practice of Teaching Art A training that calls for a very direct exercise of the critical powers, developing judgment and skill, is a training that will increase the individual's efficiency whatever his calling may be. The general public has not thought of art education in this way, but has acknowledged the value of "drawing," especially when it can serve some utilitarian purpose. A better understanding of the true usefulness of art recognizes creative power as a divine gift, the natural endowment of every human soul, showing itself at first in the form that we call appreciation. This appreciation leads a certain number to produce actual works of art, greater or lesser, - perhaps a temple, perhaps only a cup - but it leads the majority to desire finer form and more harmony of tone and color in surroundings and things for daily use. It is the individual's right to have full control of these powers. Even from the economic side, that education is deficient which leaves one unable to judge of form and color when he is constantly required to use such judgment. This lack of appreciation is responsible for an immense waste of labor, skill and money in the production of useless and ugly things. Works of fine art stand among the things which the world prizes most highly. A nation's ideals are revealed in its art. and its art has greatest value when it is the expression of the spirit of the whole people.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. Embark on a journey into the world of art education with this insightful book, a comprehensive guide for educators and art enthusiasts alike. Rooted in the principles of the early 20th century, the author presents a synthetic approach to teaching art, emphasizing the development of appreciation and creative expression in students of all ages. This book delves into the fundamental elements of artââ âline, dark-and-light, and colorââ âand explores how these elements can be used to create harmonious compositions in various mediums, including drawing, painting, and modeling. The author draws inspiration from historical and cultural art forms, including Greek vases, Gothic architecture, and Japanese prints, to illustrate the universal principles of design. With a focus on fostering creativity and critical thinking, this book challenges traditional academic methods that prioritize representation over design. The author advocates for a holistic approach that integrates art education with other subjects, such as history, mathematics, and literature. Through practical exercises and insightful discussions, this book empowers educators to cultivate a generation of individuals who not only appreciate beauty but also possess the ability to express themselves creatively.
