Kunstnarar i barnehagen – estetiske erfaringar av høg kvalitet?

Abstract

The article explores the aesthetic experience and learning process in kindergarten through the perspective of a project in Den kulturelle bæremeisen. Den kulturelle bæremeisen’s stated premise is that when preschool children participate in creative processes enabling acquisition of artistic impressions and aesthetic experiences of high quality, professional artists must be present. Based mainly in rhetorical theory the article examines how being an artist can enhance the quality of the artistic experience for children. It is about arts education through a musical material, deeply engaged with a creating process.
