Art Education and Contemporary Culture

Using Ireland as a model, this book offers a comprehensive treatment of art education in primary and secondary schools, institutions of higher education, cultural institutions and the diverse communities they serve. Gary Granville has brought together a diverse group of eminent art educators who, together, lay out the opportunities and challenges of art practice while paying close attention to relevant national policy. Rounding out the discussion are essays that locate the challenges and innovations of art education in an international context.
