Beskrivning
This collection considers how Canadian art educators are engaging with a new range of approaches to museum education, and why educators are responding to 21st century challenges in ways that are unique to Canada.Organized into three sections, this collection reconceptualizes museums to consider accessibility, differences in lived experiences, and how practices create impactful change. With the overarching concept of relationality between art museums and interdisciplinary perspectives, authors consider methodological, philosophical, experiential and aesthetic forms of inquiry in regional museum contexts from coast-to-coast-to-coast that bring forward innovative theoretical standpoints with practice-based projects in museums, articulating how museums are shifting, and why museums are evolving as sites that mediate different and multiple knowledges for the future. Informed by social justice perspectives, and as catalysts for public scholarship, each chapter is passionate in addressing the mobilization of equity, diversity and inclusivity (EDI) in relation to practices in the field.By weaving the learning potential of interacting with artworks more fully within situated and localized social and cultural communities, the authors present a distinct socio-political discourse at the heart of teaching and learning. Rupturing preconceived ideas and sedimentary models, they suggest a discourse of living futures is already upon us in museums and in art education.

Recensioner i media

'This is an excellent overview of recent trends in Canadian museums to reinvent themselves and their audiences through experiential and participatory ways. Museum educators, as well as educators in schools or postsecondary institutions, or anyone who is interested in introducing art objects and exhibitions to others in inclusive ways, will benefit from learning a variety of ways to support learning and meaningful engagement in interpretation. The book will also appeal to researchers interested in theoretical perspectives involved in interpretation. It is an important contribution to thinking about the role of interpretation in the arts and the many ways that art offers engagement with issues of importance without hindering the exchange of views.'
