The concern of this paper is to provide a number of ‘seeds’ for a reclaiming of art in education by placing emphasis upon art's pedagogy or art's education. The notion of reclaiming does not infer a return to a utopian past or to a halcyon future, but it invokes a reaffirmation of the adventure of events of art practice that can take us beyond ourselves towards new creative assemblages and possibilities for becoming‐with. Such reclaiming requires a culture of trust, care and response‐ability. In relation to art's pedagogy the paper calls for opening up what is formally recognised as ‘practice’ in art education to a sensing towards what might be obscured by such recognition and in doing so reshape our ideas and modes of practice.
