Abstract

Abstract:When teaching the use of perspective, art teachers usually begin with the linear perspective of the Italian Renaissance with the intent of providing pupils with practical tools to create spatial illusion in their drawings. Perspective, however, is and can be much more than a technique for constructing pictures. Given that perspective-taking is one of the central aspects of empathy, the teaching of this topic can serve as a tool for improving openness and empathy among school children. The transformative power of art education makes this possible. The current article suggests a method of using photographic works of art to encourage children to see the world from the perspective of the other. Complementing the teaching of one-point perspective, the teacher introduces the children to the idea of multiple points of view to engage them in imagining things as if they could be otherwise, leading eventually to increased social sensitivity.
论艺术教育中的“透视”与移情
摘要:在教授透视的使用时,美术教师通常从意大利文艺复兴时期的线性透视开始,目的是为学生提供在绘画中创造空间错觉的实用工具。然而,透视不仅仅是一种构建图片的技术,而且可以是一种构造图片的技术。鉴于视角转换是移情的核心方面之一,这一主题的教学可以作为提高学童开放性和移情能力的工具。艺术教育的变革力量使这成为可能。目前的文章提出了一种使用摄影艺术作品来鼓励孩子们从他人的角度看待世界的方法。作为一点视角教学的补充,老师向孩子们介绍了多个视角的概念,让他们想象事情,就好像他们本来可以想象一样,最终提高了社会敏感性。

期刊介绍: The Journal of Aesthetic Education (JAE) is a highly respected interdisciplinary journal that focuses on clarifying the issues of aesthetic education understood in its most extensive meaning. The journal thus welcomes articles on philosophical aesthetics and education, to problem areas in education critical to arts and humanities at all institutional levels; to an understanding of the aesthetic import of the new communications media and environmental aesthetics; and to an understanding of the aesthetic character of humanistic disciplines. The journal is a valuable resource not only to educators, but also to philosophers, art critics and art historians.
