Abstract

This study aims to present a plan of new theoretical subject & curriculum of plastic arts as a scientific consilience. Consilience, or the unity of knowledge, a book by Edward Wilson, in this book, Wilson attempt to explain the bridge of culture gap between the sciences and the humanities. Wilson's assertion is that unite the sciences and unite the sciences with the humanities & arts. Like Wilson's assertion in Consilience, the synthesis of knowledge from different specialized fields of human endeavor is also important in plastic arts education. Because, with the rise of the modern sciences, the sense of unity was lost in the increasing fragmentation and specialization of knowledge and most of the today's issues cannot be solved without integrating knowledge. Therefore, as a viewpoint of Wilson's Consilience, theoretical subject educations of plastic arts are very important to improve the students' ability to develop creative thinking, develop human nature and well-organized training system of arts. But, colleges of art & design in Korea are relatively lacking in this kind of studies and theoretical educational system. So, it is necessary to study on theoretical education system & curriculum of plastic arts in point of interdisciplinary approach, multidisciplinary approach, transdisciplinary approach beyond the boundaries of studies. And this pont of approaches have almost the same view of Wilson's Consilience. Through this study, those of the followings are analysed in details: 1) the necessity of consilience studies in theoretical arts education, 2) the study of education model based on scientific consilience, 3) improvement & practical application for consilience in plastic arts education New theoretical subject & curriculum of plastic arts as a scientific consilience, will be a new educational paradigm in college of arts. It is expected that this study can be actively utilized for policies of plastic arts education, developing educational system and structure of college of arts and liberal arts colleges for making new subjects.
