A Clumsy Encounter: Drawing from Observation
Penketh, Claire
2011-01-01 00:00:00
[This chapter explores the current context of art education in the UK. It also examines the origins of thinking and beliefs in relation to the epistemology and pedagogy of the subject, and the positioning of drawing from observation within this discourse. The interrelationships between these are highly significant for this discussion since it is the situated nature of participants’ experiences of drawing from observation that is the focus. In outlining this context, I will offer an examination of the origins of current compulsory art education practices analysing the role of a skills-based art education which places drawing from observation as a central practice.]
