Abstract
This case study aims to Enhance pre -service visual arts teachers’ awareness of contemporary art approaches, foster their creative thinking skills, and facilitate their engagement with contemporary art practices, while examining the impact of this process on the development of creativity. the study focuses on how the creation of video designs that synthesize Futurism and Land Art influences the creativity of visual arts teacher candidates. The participants consisted of 11 pre -service visuals arts teachers enrolled in Visual Arts Education program in Turkey. the research examined 19-second video works created by the participants, which combined two conceptually contrasting art movements: Futurism and Land Art. The qualitative data obtained were analyzed through content analysis within the framework of an interdisciplinary art education perspective. The video works were evaluated by three experts based on the criteria of spatial use, artistic expression, thematic relevance, memorability, and originality. The video design process was observed to guide pre -service teachers through creative processes such as reconciling opposing aesthetic understandings, discovering new compositional techniques, integrating themes of technology and nature, and developing original artistic expressions. It was concluded that, regardless of technical perfection, the participants produced their video works as a result of their creative thinking skills. Both the engagement of pre -service teachers in this creative design process and the resulting unique artistic products demonstrate that integrating contemporary art techniques into education is an effective method for training creative art educators.
