“Picasso’s multi-perspectival figures, Pollock’s paint-splattered canvases, Rauschenberg’s all-white paintings, Warhol’s pop art, among other prototypical manifestations of modern art, have greatly expanded our notions of art and representation, but only within the sensory field of sight…Where then, as we…enter the twenty-first century, can we look for a model of aesthetics which is not dominated by sight?”
From the book The Color of Angels: Cosmology, Gender and the Aesthetic Imagination, by Constance Classen, 1998: 138. New York: Routledge.

Paul Bolin is interested in exploring the role objects play in the lives of people, primarily through investigating the meanings common to everyday objects present throughout our lives. These examinations occur through the study of material culture. His numerous writings and publications include two volumes co-edited with Kristin Congdon and Doug Blandy: Remembering Others: Making Invisible Histories of Art Education Visible (2000) and Community-Based Art Education Histories (2001). His compilation, Writings in Art Education: Recipients of the Manuel Barkan Memorial Award, 1970-1999, was published by the National Art Education Association in 2005. Recipient of numerous awards, teaching and writing recognition, Bolin has presented his research at various conferences throughout North America. He currently serves on the editorial review boards of the journals Visual Arts Research and Studies in Art Education.
