 ART EDUCATION IN
CONTEMPORARY
PERSPRECTIVE
Contemporary art is the art of today, produced by artists who
are living in the twenty-first century. Contemporary art provides
an opportunity to reflect on contemporary society and the
issues relevant to ourselves, and the world around us.
Contemporary artists work in a globally influenced, culturally
diverse, and technologically advancing world.
Their art is a dynamic combination of materials, methods,
concepts, and subjects that challenge traditional boundaries
and defy easy definition. Diverse and eclectic, contemporary art
as a whole is distinguished by the very lack of a uniform,
organizing principle, ideology, or ‘ism.’ contemporary art is part
of a cultural dialogue that concerns larger contextual
frameworks such as personal and cultural identity, family,
community, and nationality.
