Art Education in a Post-Modern Age.
Parks, Michael E.
Art Education, v42 n2 p10-13 Mar 1989
Discusses the history of modern art and the emergence of post-modernism, assessing the implications for art education. Stating that viewers must be culturally literate to comprehend post-modern art, Parks argues that discipline-based art education will better prepare students to deal with the images, issues, and ambiguity they will be confronted with in art and in life.
