Speaking the Mind and Minding the Speech: Novices Interpreting Art.
Soep, Elisabeth; Cotner, Teresa
Studies in Art Education, v40 n4 p350-72 Sum 1999
Focuses on how art viewers express their aesthetic experiences into linguistic structures. Analyzes the language of novice adult art viewers and, using discourse analysis, identifies four interpretive strategies evident in their speech: (1) contrast, (2) negation, (3) speculation, and (4) narration. Discusses each strategy in relation to current approaches to art education. (DSK)
