The Discipline of Art Criticism: Implications for Practice.

Geahigan, George

Visual Arts Research, v23 n2 p145-57 Fall 1997

Addresses three questions to characterize the discipline of art criticism and delineate its role in instruction: (1) What is a discipline? (2) In what sense is art criticism a discipline? and (3) How, specifically, is art criticism to inform educational practice? Links this discussion to assumptions in Discipline-Based Art Education.
