Researchers navigating the ontological turn in educational research have increasingly looked to art as an alternative to conventional modes of qualitative inquiry. However, the rapprochement between art and post-qualitative research remains problematic. While some see this turn coinciding with established genealogies in arts-based research, others…

Art education in the USA has made great progress toward greater inclusiveness and is generally a force against resurgent fascism.
