Preview Rancière and Emancipatory Art Pedagogies: The Politics of Childhood Art
Description:
Drawing on the philosophy of Jacques Rancière, this open access book explores understandings of childhood and childhood art, and examines how linear age-based developmental theories often limit children’s creativity. Using Rancière’s ideas on pedagogy, politics, and aesthetics, Hayon Park offers a post-structural, reconceptualist approach to art education. Presenting observations from a research study of a Kindergarten classroom in the USA and drawing on the author’s own experiences of childhood in South Korea, Park discusses the politics and ethics of teacher-led art projects, children’s popular culture, and adult-child drawing companionship, arguing that art education is inherently political and relational. The author argues that, from an early age, children are acutely aware of monitoring, categorisation, and the potential oppression of their art making and learning. Park argues for new emancipatory practices and pedagogies, which encourage children’s creativity and activate curiosity.
