Outline of Final Research Achievements

The purpose of this study is to consider how to grow the spirit of freedom in an art education in Japan. “Education through Art” proposed by Sir Herbert Read had a significant impact and was a starting point of the contemporary art education in Japan. However, its significance has become obscure today. In this study, we did text analysis of private art education movement in Japan after World War II, that is, in 1950s -1970s. Also, it clarified what should be improved in order to foster creative and democratic people. As a conclusion, we suggested the importance of “thinking” in the art education as a specific method to grow the spirit of freedom. It was located on the extension of “play” which is the center of the art education in Japan. The discussion has major implications for the art education in the world as well as in Japan.
