Collaborative Painting Research Study Museum Exhibition (DOI 10.13140/RG.2.2.33536.00006) This study expands the ways knowledge is produced providing an engaging approach for the participants and researcher to collect, represent, interpret, and disseminate knowledge through Collaborative Painting. The collaborative creative process encouraged the use of dialogue among the participants by listening and thinking together seeking one unique vision, fostering communication, collaboration, and social interaction. Finally, as we continue to have more scientific evidence of the positive benefits of the arts, and how the Brain is transformed by Art (Magsamen & Ross, 2023), we need to find out-innovate ways to implement and share the arts and aesthetic practices for the well-being and healing of our communities. #panchosaenz #artistresearcher #Dialogue #Collaborative #CollaborativePaintingResearch #ArtsBasedResearch #Heuristic #

Entitled 'The process for collective embodiment: A creative workshop modality’, this research essay explores an alternative structure for artist-led workshops. Proposing a curatorial methodology, my hope is to give agency to both artist and participants, forming an equality to collaborative art making. Give it a read if you're interested in creative collaboration and spaces for community engagement. Much appreciated.

Newly published by Amsterdam University Press - Art and its Geographies, 1550-1815: Configuring Schools of Art in Europe Edited by Ingrid Vermeulen, Vrije Universiteit Amsterdam (VU Amsterdam) https://lnkd.in/eG6dj4KP Available as Open Access! https://lnkd.in/epYatXgZ Schools of art represent one of the building blocks of art history. The notion of a school of art emerged in artistic discourse and disseminated across various countries in Europe during the early modern period. Whilst a school of art essentially denotes a group of artists or artworks, it came to be configured in multiple ways, encompassing different meanings of learning, origin, style, or nation, and mediated in various forms via academies, literature, collections, markets and galleries. Moreover, it contributed to competitive debate around the hierarchy of art and artists in Europe. The ensuing fundamental instability of the notion of a school of art helped to create a pluriform panorama of both distinct and interconnected artistic traditions within the European art world. This edited collection brings together 20 articles devoted to selected case studies from the Italian peninsula, the Low Countries, France, Spain, England, the German Empire, and Russia. View the table of contents here: https://lnkd.in/eCKdtUBY The volume is published in the series Visual and Material Culture, 1300-1700 (Gen'l Editor, Allison Levy).

GRIFFITH UNIVERSITY ART MUSEUM GETS ONE YEAR REPRIEVE! The proposal to close the Griffith University Art Museum has been put on hold. Here's a link to the official statement. https://lnkd.in/gkyXvHx8 Have written again to Professors Harrison and Evans, here's the text. "I am very pleased to hear that because of supporters stepping forward and funding being raised from outside of the university, you have extended the period of time for consideration of the future of the Griffith University Art Museum. This is a sensible outcome that will allow a much deeper and more meaningful consideration of change than could have possibly emerged from a simple closure proposal consultation over a three-week period before Christmas. Of the responses received during the three-week period, how many were in favour of closure and how many were against? As per my original letter about the closure proposal, I shall be sending to you both a copy of my recent book - The Museums and Collections of Higher Education (Routledge 2023) - in which I argue the many value propositions that an outward facing university museum can bring to the business of higher education. I hope some of the arguments in the book will inform and assist your future decision-making concerning GUAM."

#AdultEducation | The other day, while taking an unscheduled walk I happened to pass by Κέντρο Τεχνών ΜΕΤΣ | METS Arts Center. I took the opportunity to tour the current exhibition “HUMANCONDITIΩΝ”. There I learned from the excellent professional Head Curator Niovi K. (thank you!) that Visual Arts are read and interpreted on three levels. Below I will try to note what I learned, hopefully remembering it correctly and understanding it at least to some satisfactory degree.   1. Visual level: we try to understand what we see, shapes, objects, and forms.   2. Colour level: we try to suspect the role played by the specific colours in the work.   3. Conceptual level: we try to contemplate the inner meaning of the various interactions of forms and colours with each other.   With appropriate adaptation, the above points can be very helpful for the study of many different scientific objects.   I won't give an example here. I prefer to discuss it first with my travel and tourism students in our digital classroom.   But I hope the above lesson will be useful to those who read it.   Oh! And get everyone who can to the exhibition!

My thesis research began as an attempt to understand what curating is and how it functions, outside of just placing objects in proximity to one another. The sprawling web of contemporary art has created an abundance of multifaceted roles where artists are also quasi-curators, directors, programers and vice versa. Under the current locale where contemporary art is being produced, considered, and disseminated, what is the need for curators? My thesis looks into the purpose of art spaces and curating as generative of community and a form of knowledge production. Using an open-source resource file, my research becomes a shared document for continuous growth and collaboration.
