#5 Alan Brown’s Values Study
1. Inventive Arts Participation engages the mind, body and spirit in an act of
artistic creation that is unique and idiosyncratic, regardless of skill level.
2. Interpretive Arts Participation is a creative act of self-expression that brings
alive and adds value to pre-existing works of art, either individually or
collaboratively.
3. Curatorial Arts Participation is the creative act of purposefully selecting,
organizing and collecting art to the satisfaction of one’s own artistic
sensibility.
4. Observational Arts Participation encompasses arts experiences that an
individual selects or consents to, motivated by some expectation of value.
5. Ambient Arts Participation involves experiencing art, consciously or
subconsciously, that is not purposefully selected – art that “happens to you.”
