I am a Citizen Artist. Are you?
Growing up to be an aspiring artist, a passion nurtured by both my parents, had its pros and cons but thankfully, mainly the former. That infamous, awful cliché, “Surely you don’t want to be a poor starving artist?” expressed by so many uninformed (or as my mother would say uneducated) folks along the journey has taken me from the depths of inward despair to the heights of good fortune and allowed me to accomplish many of my goals, Ben yaşadığımız dünyada anlamlı ve katkı varlığını dahil. Redemption tatlı.
Benim geçmişten gelen bazı kişisel gözlemler: müzik için bir tutku matematik aşkım neden, koreografi için bir tutku beni tarihin bir öğrenci olmasına yardımcı, fotoğrafçılık için bir tutku benim yazma yeteneği gelişmiş, ve nihayet benim kendi kendine organize ticari ve hayırsever takipçiliği benim başarılarından çok için sahne sanatları için bir tutku kredi.
Zihin Çerçeveleri: The Theory of Multiple Intelligences saved my life in a way. It helped me to understand my ability to see the solutions to real life issues while some of my peers were still struggling to understand the problems. Critical thinking skills, a life-long motivation to learn, the willingness to learn from mistakes, a focus on creating versus consuming and social and collaborative skills were at the top of my wish list for my own children. I believed a well-rounded inter-disciplinary arts education was compulsory. Oh yes, even when it meant disrupting the most traditional and acclaimed education methods on offer. This view combined with my instinctive curiosity (positively fostered by my own arts education) led me to ask this question: Is the world’s approach to education antiquated? I learned what I already knew in my heart and my mind. We live in the Age of Innovation. Today’s world rewards the most innovative young people. Dünya liderleri, işletme yöneticileri, eğitimciler, and policy makers are signing up the next generation of self-driven innovators.
Hence how important is art to 21st century life? How important is oxygen to 21st century life?
Look at it this way. With the advent of Google, knowledge is as free as the air we breathe. Ayrıca, the speed at which knowledge is changing has dramatically increased. In order to have a competitive advantage today, you need more. If I look at a room of talented graduates who all have the same test scores, the same level of academic education and the same community service projects, I am going to pick the person whom I believe can contribute something unique to my organization. And that is where I believe an inter-disciplinary arts education gives candidates a competitive advantage. Ask anyone who’s developed a book, bir film, a dance, a musical composition, or all of those, and you will understand the additional intelligences and contributions they can bring to the table.
