This book introduces current concepts in art teaching and the historical roots of the discipline. The complex causal framework linking education and art serves as the starting-point and the thread on which the presentation is based. The professional fields involved in art teaching - particularly art teaching in schools - and the target groups and methods are then discussed in detail. The volume also provides an in-depth introduction to central fields of scholarly research on art and provides information about the most important questions for study courses.

Prof. Dr. Georg Peez lehrt an der Goethe-Universität Frankfurt am Main Kunstpädagogik und Didaktik der Kunst.
