Perry: Beyond the Canon: Leveraging Instagram for Inclusive Visual Culture Education, Kartoniert / Broschiert

Klappentext

While Instagram offers a window into the art world, it can often be a narrow one. This title "Beyond the Canon" suggests exploring lesser-known artists and movements. Here's how Instagram can be a tool for inclusive visual culture education: Breaking the Mold: Move beyond the usual suspects. Curate feeds that showcase the works of underrepresented artists, highlighting diverse cultures and historical periods. Imagine discovering a Central Asian tapestry or a contemporary Indigenous mural ¿ all on your phone! Global Inspiration: Instagram transcends geographical borders. Explore street art movements in South America or folk art traditions from Southeast Asia. This can broaden perspectives and challenge traditional notions of what constitutes "art." Shifting the Narrative: Use captions to tell stories beyond the Eurocentric art canon. Highlight the social and political messages embedded in lesser-known works. Imagine a photo of a protest poster ¿ wouldn't uncovering its history be empowering? By using Instagram to explore the fringes of the art world, we can dismantle cultural hierarchies and foster a more inclusive understanding of visual culture. So, keep scrolling, but with a purpose ¿ to go beyond the established canon and discover the vast, vibrant landscape of art waiting to be explored.
