Myth, Mystery, and the Magic of Art Education: Beyond the Artefact
Springer Verlag (2023)
Abstract
This book provides a new understanding of art education, connecting art, necessity, and pedagogy. Plenty has been written about art education, but its potential contribution to inner autonomy and existential emancipation due to the re-articulation of time and space in art has not been adequately explored in a pedagogic context. This book explores art as an affective continuum--not a plaything of culture, but rather a mode of alignment of the existential Eros with our ontological truth.

Chapters
Poetry as Portrait and Performance of Art
The present chapter brings to our plane of creative attention two elements that when brought into performative relation begins to reveal art at the level of the magical, namely, poetry and portraiture.

Steps to the Magicology of Art

Secrets of Color, Secrets of Form
A work of art is nothing other than the capture of tensions. It therefore displays forces and energies that are alive and internal to it. If science has access to atomic powers, art has access to cosmic vitalities, and if science can boast of analytical abilities, art can speak of synthetic capaciti... see more
Art, Fact, and the Artifact
In the closing chapter, the reader will be presented with a rather peculiar fact concerning our formal knowledge processes—specifically, scientific knowledge—and the relation of this odd fact with art and aesthetics. This peculiarity and the paradox that it gives rise to will be brought out in stage... see more
Ghosts of Uncertainty and the Spirit of Art
In Indic mythology, one theme keeps recurring—it is that we live in amnesia of our true identities as beings, and we have to be awakened to ourselves. This is where the aesthetic preparation comes into play. In this chapter, we continue our journey to systematically raise our orbit past the conventi... see more
The Artistic Subject and the Subject of Art: An Introduction
This book is not about art; rather, it aims to situate itself within the artistic process, and not merely provide descriptions of it from the outside. Just as the current of water cannot be felt without actually coming in contact with it and being carried along, the magicality of art cannot be sense... see more
Conversations on Art Pedagogy
This chapter is a running dialogue between the artist and an interlocutor. It attempts to explain what it is that the artist actually does and why art is different from the artifact. A: Paintings belong to a non-verbal domain, a different analog of reality, and therefore are not in need of interpret... see more
