An Uneasy Guest in the Schoolhouse
"In 1982 I travelled to northern Italy to observe the preschools in the city of Reggio Emilia. I made more visits over the years, including my last visit in 2020. I wanted to understand the teaching methods that allowed typical children to make art that looked so much more advanced that that seen in American preschools. The first seeds of this book were planted as I observed the art that Reggio children were able to create"--

This comprehensive volume highlights and centers untold histories of education at the Museum of Modern Art (MoMA) from 1937 to 2020, using the critical voices of artists, scholars, designers, and educators.

The Life, Art, and Times of Joseph Delaney, 1904-1991
