| Summary |
"Describes the world's leading approach to art and design taught at Rhode Island School of Design. At Rhode Island School of Design students are immersed in a culture where making questions, ideas, and objects, using and inventing materials, and activating experience all serve to define a form of critical thinking - albeit with one's hands - i.e. 'critical making.' The Art of Critical Making, by RISD faculty and staff, describes fundamental aspects of RISD's approach to 'critical making' and how this can lead to innovation"--Provided by publisher |
