| "I'm
Not Lying, This Is Not a Pipe": Foucault and Magritte
on the Art of Critical Pedagogy |
Develops
an aesthetics of critical pedagogy derived from Foucault's
descriptions of the paintings of the surrealist Rene
Magritte. The article lays out Foucault's analysis of
Magritte's aesthetics and applies this model to the
California Readiness test given to kindergarten children.
Argues that the implementation of this standardized
test fits what Foucault calls a repressive normalizing
practice.
