About the Book

This book investigates the field of social artistry using a phenomenological approach to study aspects of the lives of seventeen social artists from around the world. It shows how imagination, inspiration, and creativity constitute a connective aesthetic in the practice of social sculpture. Grounded in the morally imaginative concepts of John Dewey and Rudolf Steiner, this work explores how sculptor Joseph Beuys spiritualized material objects in an artistic and social context. The book also explores the use of contemplative inquiry as a unique method of research and analysis providing insights about the inner nature of artistry and its application in the social realm.
About the Author: Nancy Kresin-Price has been involved in Waldorf education for over twenty years as a parent, administrator, and teacher. She helped to found the Tamarack Waldorf School in Milwaukee, WI and served as the school's administrator for its first three years. She is currently the Director of Teacher Development at the Great Lakes Waldorf Institute, a Waldorf teacher development program offering certificates and Master's degrees. The mother of five distinguished Waldorf children, she is also wife to another dynamic Waldorf class teacher and jazz musician. She earned a BFA in Acting from the DePaul/Goodman School of Drama in Chicago in 1985 and spent many subsequent years as a professional actress and acting teacher before discovering Waldorf Education. She completed a Master's degree in Liberal Studies at the Barfield School of Sunbridge College where she used Goethean methodologies and contemplative practice in academic research. Nancy completed her doctorate at the California Institute of Integral Studies in the Transformative Studies department. Her study focused on an action research project that trained teachers in techniques to build deeper teacher-student relationships through the mindful and contemplative practice of student observation.
