'From the start, the concept driving this program has been that the visual arts must be considered a field of knowledge and that an artwork should be considered, first and foremost, a thinking process. Consequently, those who wish to work within this field deserve an education based on more than solely the achievement of specific skills.' - from Foreword: How do We Teach Art, Angela Vettese.
'The work of art has often been a battleground — its decorative and formal aspects positioned against its nature as an embodiment of cognitive acts. Leonardo da Vinci’s claim that art be a “cosa mentale” is winning at last: recent debates around art schools and their methods, of which this book is a vast survey, demonstrate that, now more than ever, art is considered the result of a thinking process.' - from back cover.
