Hamblen, Jerome Hausman, Don H. Krug, June King McFee, Wanda T. May, Patricia Stuhr, and Janet Wolff -- present a compelling discussion on a contemporary view of art education that is an alternative model to the narrower, disciplinary conception now prevalent.

The Psychology of Art Appreciation
This book is more than an introduction to the psychology of art appreciation, it puts into perspective the research carried out within the area and offers a new understanding of the relationship between art and viewer. A number of studies within the psycho-physical, cognitive, psychoanalytic, and existential-phenomenological schools of thought are presented in order to demonstrate how their views on the appreciation of visual art vary. Five different types of art appreciation, ranging from a spontaneous preference for a work of art to a blissful experience of trancendence, are identified and described.
Vision 2020
The Housewright Symposium on the Future of Music Education, held at Florida State University in Tallahassee in 1999, assembled 175 music educators, industry representatives, community arts leaders, and students to speculate about what music education might look like in 2020 and the directions the field might take. Participant presentations were published in 2000 as the book Vision 2020, and the current reprint shares the ideas of the likes of Wiley Housewright, Clifford Madsen, Judith Jellison, and other illuminati of music teaching and learning. The contributors to this book asked leading questions about the value of music education, its place in the curriculum, and its possible futures. Ma...
The Neoliberal Undead
The Neoliberal Undead describes the frightening world of class restoration, neoliberal austerity, ecological meltdown, and neo-imperialism a disaster capitalism that breeds mutant ideological justifications for itself and the inevitability of disorder, poverty and suffering. What role does culture play in this world of markets and how do new contestatory forms enable a leftist solidarity that can move cultural radicalism beyond the postmodern obsession with new subjectivities? Rather than become the symptoms of democratic materialism, signing up for endless culture wars, The Neoliberal Undead argues for a rethinking of radical cultural leftism against the terms of the dominant global situation. The relentless reduction of art criticism and art production under capitalist relations requires that the living separate themselves from the abstractions of globalization and reconnect with revolutionary theory. ,
Seeing the Unseen
Seeing the Unseen Educating in the Twilight Zone of God's Glory A breakthrough in thinking and practical psychology. Reviewers have likened his style to that of C. S. Lewis and Philip Yancy. Dana Roberts believes that modern psychotherapy, romanticism, repetitious advertising and electronic entertainment haven weakened our mind. It's hurt the reasoning voice inside our head-the theater of our mental images.-what the Bible calls the heart. It enables us to "see the unseen," and enjoy the beauty and wonder of life. The Image of God series will guide readers into the very place where memories, new ideas and God dwell. Dana Roberts has taught history and World Religions in colleges and universities. He has written a number of books and articles on China and Christianity in China. His research on art and religion has taken him to museums in Asia, The United States and England. For fifty years he's been thinking about thinking-when and how God speaks to the heart.
The National Art Education Association
It is important to maintain a history and archival record of the art education professional associations, state and national. Those who have gone before should be honored, since they struggled to build the National Art Education Association into the largest association of its kind in the world. And a history of its professional development, and in a way of art education itself, helps prepare for the challenges of the future. Following an introduction by the editor, chapters are: (1) "The Emergence of the Regionals and the NEA Art Departments: The National Art Education Association Is Born" (John A. Michael); (2) "The Development of the NAEA Constitution" (Ivan E. Johnson); (3) "A National As...
