Tear Down These Walls: New Genre Public Art and Art Education.
Green, Gayle Leigh
Journal of Social Theory in Art Education, n18 p77-82 1998
Argues that public genre art education engages the public with art forms that depart from traditional media usage and intentions to encourage collaboration, the demystification of artmaking, and societal reconstruction. Reviews aspects of the public-genre art-education methodology. Concludes that public-genre artmaking melds aesthetic practice into life experiences. (DSK)
