Tate Liverpool Exchange – International Arts Based Research

By domansky

International arts collaboration at Tate Liverpool – ‘From Mittens to Barbies: International Arts-Based Education Research’

Alison Shields, PhD Candidate in Art Education, and Dr. Natalie LeBlanc, PhD graduate in art education and PostDoc Fellow, Department of Curriculum & Pedagogy, University of British Columbia, are artists-students whose work will be part of the Tate Liverpool Exchange program, March 12-18, 2018.

The event, ‘From Mittens to Barbies: International Arts-Based Education Research’, features work by PhD students or post-doc fellows from Concordia University (Canada); The University of British Columbia (Canada); The University of Chester (UK); the University of Granada (Spain) and the University of Lapland (Finland).  The universities are participating in a SSHRC Partnership Development Grant lead by Dr. Anita Sinner (Concordia University) with Dr. Rita Irwin as co-investigator. Other co-investigators include Dr. Jeff Adams (UK), Dr. Joaquin Roldan and Dr. Ricardo Marin (Spain) and Dr. Timo Jokela (Finland).

This interactive event has emerged as part of ‘The Pedagogical Turn to Art as Research’ project, which aims to investigate Arts-Based Educational Research (ABER) through a comparative international study of doctoral programmes. The artist-students’ research methods have a wide international range: from Barbie doll installations (UK) to knitted woollen mittens (Lapland); body poetry (Spain) to indigenous identity poems and studios as portals (Canada). Each day will have a different international focus and gallery visitors are encouraged to engage practically and creatively with the themes and social issues brought into focus by the student-artists.
