ABSTRACT

It has become the mainstream of today's art education reform to excavate humanistic resources and pay attention to humanistic cultivation in art education. Folk arts have rich cultural details and are deeply loved by people, because they come from life, are created by people's hands, and embellish people's lives. They express people's demands for beauty. They have been inherited in the development of history and have been endowed with new elements and meanings with the changes of people's lives. Based on the analysis of the current situation of folk art in contemporary art education, this paper explores the value of folk art in contemporary art education from three aspects: enriching the teaching resources of art education, promoting the cultivation of students' innovative thinking, and expanding the humanistic resources of art education. The aim is to further promote the organic integration of contemporary art education and folk art and lay a good foundation for the sustainable development of art education.
