The Art and Craft of Pedagogy: Portraits of Effective Teachers
'The Art and Craft of Pedagogy confirms the intrinsic pedagogical character of art practice. By bringing together the stories of an array of art practitioners working within different settings and environments, Richard Hickman helps his readers to better understand the relationship between art and teaching. In so doing he also dispels the mechanistic fallacy of "art as an instrument of education" where artists are expected to remain accountable to a schooled establishment that reduces art education into a functionalist machine.' John Baldacchino, Associate Professor, The Art and Art Education Programme, Teachers College, Columbia University, USA
