OTHER WAYS OF UNDERSTANDING ART...

What is the purpose and value of Art education in the 21st Century? Foley makes the case the Art’s critical value is to develop learners that think like Artists which means learners who are creative, curious, that seek questions, develop ideas, and play. For that to happen society will need to stop the pervasive, problematic and cliché messaging that implies that creativity is somehow defined as artistic skill. This shift in perception will give educators the courage to teach for creativity, by focusing on three critical habits that artist employ,
1. Comfort with Ambiguity,
2. Idea Generation, and
3. Transdisciplinary Research.
This change can make way for Center’s for Creativity in our schools and museums where ideas are king and curiosity reigns
