The Artist-Teacher: A Collaboration of Scholar, Researcher, and Teacher Focused on Art

Abstract

An Artist-Teacher is someone who is identified in a paradoxical way in South Asia due to the academic artists’ contradictory practices; that is, the Artist-Teacher operates separately in the creative fields as a misplaced Scholar, Researcher, Artist-Teacher, and Artist. Therefore, a wide range of people is unable to accept visual art as their future profession. As a result, only skills are developed through academic practices, and other concerns of visual arts in the social structure are not explored appropriately. This article emphasizes the multitude of characters in particular segments of an Artist-Teacher and analyzes and proposes the necessary structure of a sequential curriculum in academic culture.
