The Artground Ecology
This book presents qualitative research narratives on children’s engagement and learning in play and arts experiences. Using The Artground Singapore - a registered arts charity that offers interactive visual art spaces for children - as a site of study, the book also offers reflective and practical insights into the professional development and incubation of art practitioners dedicated to the creation and implementation of works for young audiences. With reference to other such purpose-built arts spaces specifically dedicated to the engagement and learning of young audiences through play and varied arts experiences, such as The Ark in Dublin and ArtPlay in Melbourne, the authors show how t...
Century of the Child
The book examines individual and collective visions for the material world of children, from utopian dreams for the citizens of the future to the dark realities of political conflict and exploitation. Surveying more than 100 years of toys, clothing, playgrounds, schools, children's hospitals, nurseries, furniture, posters, animation and books, this richly illustrated catalogue illuminates how progressive design has enhanced the physical, intellectual, and emotional development of children and, conversely, how models of children's play have informed experimental aesthetics and imaginative design thinking.
International Handbook of Research in Arts Education
Providing a distillation of knowledge in the various disciplines of arts education (dance, drama, music, literature and poetry and visual arts), this essential handbook synthesizes existing research literature, reflects on the past, and contributes to shaping the future of the respective and integrated disciplines of arts education. While research can at times seem distant from practice, the Handbook aims to maintain connection with the live practice of art and of education, capturing the vibrancy and best thinking in the field of theory and practice. The Handbook is organized into 13 sections, each focusing on a major area or issue in arts education research.
The Making of the Alnwick Garden
Ian August was set to retire from his position as the Factor for Northumberland Alnwick Estates when the Duchess asked for his help with a new project. The Duchess of Northumberland s vision was to create a beautiful public space accessible to everyone. Eight years later, the project has become Alnwick Garden. This is the story of one woman s stubborn crusade to realize her dream, told by the man who has been by her side since the beginning. Throughout, August documented the garden s creation, and before-and-after photos record the progress of the largest Tree House in the world, the Poison Garden, the Cascade, David Austen s Rose Garden, and many other of the garden s pleasures."

Childhood, Culture and Society
This is an excellent introduction to the subject, wide-ranging, authoritative and accessible. The presentation of key concepts in the understanding of contemporary childhood, followed by a series of thematic explorations, makes for an effective combination of breadth and depth. I would recommend it to students in particular." - Nigel Thomas, Professor Emeritus of Childhood and Youth, UCLAN

Produktsprachen
Die Welt des Gegenständlichen hat sich verändert. Angeregt durch die Do-it-yourself-Ästhetik werden auch industriell gefertigte Produkte immer häufiger ihrer eindeutigen Lesbarkeit entledigt. Über Bedeutung und Nutzung entscheiden nunmehr die Konsumenten, die mit Umarbeitungen und Ergänzungen aus dem vorgefertigten ein individuelles Produkt kreieren. Thilo Schwer befragt dieses Phänomen der nicht mehr eindeutigen Produktsprache vor der Folie der Systemtheorie von Niklas Luhmann und der Beiträge von Jochen Gros zum Offenbacher Ansatz - und beschreibt auf diese Weise die neuen Mensch-Objekt-Beziehungen umfassender als zuvor.
