Visual Inquiry
Visual Inquiry (Journal)
Visual Inquiry is a readable and approachable academic journal dedicated to discussing issues of art education in a challenging and visually engaging way. It is a forum for engaging the rich and multifaceted process of learning and teaching art that takes place in the classroom, studio, and beyond.
The scope of Visual Inquiry is broad and is aimed at facilitating a wide spectrum of perspectives. It is essentially a medium for engaging the rich and multifaceted process of learning and teaching art that takes place in the classroom, studio, and beyond.
However, the seriousness of the journal is not outweighed by making critical topics accessible and readable to a large constituency of readers. It is a forum of reflection on the process of creating and teaching art. It embraces teaching art in a variety of contexts, engages art appreciation experiences, shares scholarship in teaching artistry, and celebrates the rich traditions of art making and teaching.
The majority of art and art education journals focus on scholarship related to art education. This double-blind peer-reviewed journal seeks to expand the readability and scope of teaching and learning art so that it is accessible and useful yet challenging and visually engaging. Highlighting the contributions, thinking processes, and successes of artist-teachers the journal will renew an excitement for teaching and learning in the arts.
