Art Education during the Great Depression.
Efland, Arthur D.
Art Education, v36 n6 p38-42 Nov 1983
The Depression of 1929 heralded a difficult time for the teaching of art. Changes during this era included more utilization of technology, a shift from elitism to art for all children, integration of art into the social studies curriculum, and emphasis upon self-expression, rather than art appreciation.
