The Ignorant Art Schools : Practising Duets #2

Description

The second iteration of Practising Duets, a series of transdisciplinary public events organised by The Ignorant Art Schools, a research group of the British Art Network (BAN). The event was an online in-conversation between Dr Anna Colin, a researcher, co-curator of British Art Show 8 and co-founder of Open School East, and and Gudskul, an alternative art pedagogical platform in Indonesia, sharing their reflections on alternative art pedagogies, economy of access, and transformative collective agency. The event was hosted by Goldsmiths, University of London.

The Ignorant Art Schools Collective explores intersections of alternative art pedagogy and new forms of collaborative curatorial agency, the latter often developed outside of Global Majority countries then evident in recent European large scale art events such as ruangrupa’s curation of Documenta 15 in 2022. The collective’s research charts the organisational praxis, spatial politics and power structures of these new forms with the aim of providing working models for enhancing socially conscious and transformative approaches to curatorial practice, art education and knowledge production. The collective’s main researchers are Sophia Yadong Hao (Cooper Gallery, University of Dundee), Dr Edgar Schmitz (Goldsmiths), Dr Paul Stewart and Prof Sarah Perks (both Teesside University).
