Interview with Link Convenor 2019
Network Objectives
The network Research on Arts Education focuses on the disciplinary discourses, politics, institutional and non-institutional practices of arts education at an international level with a special emphasis on European practices. The Network 29 aims to create an ongoing space of research seeking to create alternative narratives that are based on a reflexive and critical positioning regarding the potential of arts education in within the contexts of contemporaneity. It provides a forum for discussion and debate of current issues regarding the place and the role of arts in education considering its historical construction and field of possibilities. The network encourages papers/interventions/discussions that describe and provide theoretical frameworks for
- the broad field of European policies on art education;
- comparative and international studies in art education;
- seeking for new narratives that take the European perspectives in confrontation with the concepts of difference and the Other;
- partnerships between the school, museums, and cultural institutions;
- relationships among contemporary artistic practices and their actors with the school;
- research in higher arts education;
- art education national curricula and their development at the micro-level of schools;
- inscription of Visual Culture within Arts Education Research.
