Bricolage Curriculum–
Post Elements & Principles, Post-Studio, Post-Media: Imagining Credible 21st Century Curriculum Planning Frameworks
Saturday, 12:00 - 12:50 pm Room 121A
Continuing a series of presentations and papers on reimagining the content of everyday art education—Postmodern Principles, Principles of Possibility, Why We Need New School Art Styles, and Evocative & Provocative Pedagogy—this presentation addresses the difficulty of establishing structural frameworks for art education in today’s multi-cultural, globally aware, aesthetically diverse postmodern culture. This formulation eschews the notion of foundational curriculum, instead advancing a conception of “comprehensive” curriculum that introduces students to a wide variety of artistic methodologies—not defined only as techniques related to a particular medium, but stylistic, aesthetic practices such as expressionist painting, DIY collage, or California Funk Pottery. This enables students to comprehend a wide range of meaning making strategies. Students would study aesthetic practices, not as historical reenactments of past ways of making, but would instead engage in making things utilizing “living” aesthetic practices— methodologies that real contemporary artists utilize to make meaning.
Doing Dirty for a Post-Neat Curriculum:
Beyond the Reality Principle
Saturday, 6:30-8:30pm
I am offering this hands on workshop at NAEA because I am interested in breaking down divisions between teachers and professors, practitioners and theorists, artists and those who teach about art. In this action packed two hours, participants will tap into forgotten stories of getting dirty, trying to keep things clean, and embracing mess. Using a technique based on Max Ernst’s “Seeing Into” method, participants will “find” the characters and spaces they need to tell their stories in crinkled and smudged paper that has been joyously messed up in the first part of the session. This workshop models teaching which integrates playful engagement with materials, recalling and sharing personal stories, reframing familiar experiences, building confidence in drawing characters and creating narrative art, experimenting with form and color to create dynamic composition, integrating text and image, exploring the cultural implications of metaphors of mess and dirt, and having fun.

Contributing to Evolving New Standards for the 21st Century
Olivia Gude & Jorge Lucero
The presenters in this session will draw upon their own extensive experiences in the field of art education and facilitate a discussion of how the emphasis on art standards is changing and how teachers can work together to re-imagine and re-invigorate the content of a visual arts curriculum. Please bring your ideas and questions to the discussion! This session is a lead-in to the evening discussion session.
Continuing Conversations – New Standards for the 21st Century
Olivia Gude & Jorge Lucero
This session will be an open forum and town-hall meeting where art teachers’ voices will be prominent sources of information as we reconsider how the art standards in Illinois can evolve in order to serve students who understand themselves, not merely as students of art, but as contemporary practitioners in the new century.
