ANN ARBOR ~ Art education should provide imaginative and inventive opportunities for our children,

gan Deparitment cf Art, says.
a)

~Tt_ is possible to be imaginative in every area, but
creative ac.iviiy is certainly more difficult in some areas
than in the -arts,~~~ he declares.

~It is more difficult, for example, for the arithmetic
teacher to prepare a situation in which the child can
invent. He can invent, but he wiil be wrong because
there is an answer in the back of the book.

~Also, there is an answer in the mind of the -arithmetic teacher, which even more severely limits the po--
sibility. of invention. Mathematicians may
mathematics and, of course, do. But children find this
inordinately difficult.

~~~Similarly, it is hard for the history teacher to set
up situations in which the child is asked to be imaginWaive. After all, it was 1492 ~ not 1503. He can image another date, but he wi!l be wrong.

~Fortunately, in the arts we can approach. the probJem of creation more directly. In fact, it~s impossible
to be an honest art teacher without invoking the imagination or the powers cf invention. Moreover, there.is
no answer in the back cf the book. There isn~t even an

answer in the mind cf the teacher.

~Art education can never be merely a matter of expression, or release. Certainly it ought not to become
just a mans of therapy, always a rather dismal excuse
for any form of education, and particularly so in art.

~We are learning to see creative activity as one of:
our essential responsibilities to a democratic society ~
to a society whose ricnness of life. must depend on the
contributions cf individuals able to imagine, to make
and to judge, in such a fashion that the wo: rid may he
