A culture can be remembered and studied by the artwork it leaves behind. The artwork gives more than a pictorial or historical record of that culture. It also reveals the cultural practices and beliefs that form the accepted boundaries for the expression of culture. These boundaries are aesthetics. It is human nature to sometimes challenge these boundaries. These challenges produce stimulation and learning. When a culture censors new ideas, it creates an environment in which advancement of knowledge is impeded. Artists, scientists, philosophers, and theologians have traditionally challenged the prevailing thought, or pushed the envelope of accepted human behavior. Art teachers need not be timid and afraid to put the thoughtful work of their students out where it may be viewed. Art teachers merely need to be more judicious in deciding the time and place of viewing. This article discusses the challenges in censoring art education.
