Description
Summary:Provides an article that was originally published in Volume 16, Fall 1976, and comments in a general way on art and "the arts," and culture, civilization, and education. Notes that art has been replaced by "cultural programs." Suggests abandoning in thinking and teaching the idea that all facts, or artifacts, or all data, are equally important or interesting. Contends that music and art in general must be thought of in terms of aesthetic experience and intellectual or even moral values. Concludes that it is incumbent upon all teachers to see that the ideal concept of art and civilization does not disappear.
