Sammanfattning: Abstract This thesis examines how art teachers work with teaching materials in their teaching and if they experience a need for a textbook for each grade 7, 8 och 9, as there is in mathematics and English. If a textbook could raise the status of the school subject art and how a textbook could be structured, contain. To find out this, qualitative semistructured interviews were conducted with 5 art teachers around Sweden which is transcribed and analyzed qualitative using content analysis and hermeneutic scientific orientation. For previous research and literature review academic journals and articles have been studied. The study has concluded that four out of five art teachers do not use any teaching material in their teaching but draw inspiration from books and on various Internet sites. Four out of five art teachers see a need for a textbook in the school subject art. Out of those of the art teacher who do not see a need for a textbook in the subject of art believe that it would counteract the school subject art and it would stifle creativity and enthusiasm. All art teachers in the study believe that the status of the subject could be raised with an textbook in the school subject art. How the textbook should be structured and what it should contain are the following: the basics, basic knowledge from simple to advanced level, facts, color theory, shapes, brushwork, classic tasks such as paraphrase of famous paintings, grid enlargement and paint monochrome images in newer versions, art history in chronological order, instructional videos, image concepts, creative open tasks and task about ethnicity, gender roles and power relations.
