At present, there are numerous students revealing that they "don't know what (they) should express." This condition is very grave. Expression entails pain and effort. Growth a s a human being cannot be expected if students do not deepen what they see, feel and think daily through activities of expression and if they do not discover themselves from within. One approach to solve this pending question might be trying to learn from progressive educational theories on young and teenage children's pictorial expression. The subject established in this research is the examination of what is the desirable form of expression for children and how to foster its development. I would like to elucidate the way in which this subject opened up with time and societal development. I will also examine the theory from the point of view of its validity in modern education. This historical genealogy and its structural characteristics have not been realized theoretically to date. This research, based on actual circumstances, surveys serious problem conditions in fine arts departments as mentioned above, and attempts to open a new phase of fine arts education theory. The extracts of the theoretical results featured in this research were highly valid. In order to increase educational effectiveness, contemporary school education based on tried theories, must work anew towards the structural grasp of establishing subject and theme contents.
