|aIn the past few decades, making art has been used in special education classrooms as a way ofoffering psychic freedom, if not bodily freedom, by providing a partial antidote to the social problems generated inan impoverished environment. The art that has emerged has redeemed theinevitable isolation and loss and become its driving force. Wexler argues that the arts are most effective when they are in service of socialgrowth, critical to identity formation. This book balances theory withpractical knowledge and offers critical research that challenges the biases regarding the nature of art and education. It includes case studies, examples of the author's strategies with children and artstudents,as well as a chapter devoted to lesson plans.
