Modelling International Collaborations in Art Education
Intellect Books (Verlag)
978-1-78938-925-8 (ISBN)
Illustrated with photographs, screenshots and student projects, the book inspires reflection on teaching methodologies and student artmaking strategies across cultures and languages. Pedagogical and methodological topics trace an evolution of curricular approaches and use of evolving online platforms. Examples of themes and visual strategies demonstrate the power of student-directed collaborative learning. Diverse voices have been gathered through research conducted with educators and alumni connected to INTAC, providing perspectives on working collaboratively in a global context.
Student projects exemplify responses to the challenges of communication and creation that come with distanced artistic partnership. Chapters end with suggested points for conversation, whether between educators, students of art education or students entering collaborations. Although based on experiences in the visual arts, the ideas and methods are applicable to others engaging in inter-institutional education or online collaborative practices.
Fully illustrated with examples of collaborative art projects, photographs, screenshots, diagrams and posters.
Peter Sramek is a visual artist with a practice in photography and book arts and as Professor at OCAD University in Canada (now emeritus), he has worked to develop innovative curriculum in the arts over more than four decades. Since 2010, development of the International Art Collaborations network has been a key focus for his ongoing efforts to expand experiential and cross-cultural learning opportunities for students. His book, ‘Piercing Time: Paris After Marville and Atget 1865–2012’ is published by Intellect Books. Giselle Mira-Diaz is an artist and art educator based in Chicago, USA. She participated in INTAC from 2015–17 while at OCAD University and throughout her master’s research in Art Education at School of the Art Institute of Chicago (2017–19, MAAE). Today she is part of the INTAC team as the Archive Project Analyst, active throughout the research for this book along with being co-facilitator for the INTAC Sustainability Jams 2022 and 2023. Giselle is currently completing an MFA in Photography at Columbia College Chicago where she is the 2023 recipient of the Stuart Abelson Graduate Research Fellowship and working as an Education Assistant at the Museum of Contemporary Photography. Her main artistic and research interest is the use of audio, film and photography to document and create a living archive of oral histories from marginalized communities who have traditionally been erased through migration or displacement. Charisse Fung is an INTAC alumna who participated in collaborative projects from 2018–2021 at OCAD University, joining the INTAC Archive Project Team as Project Archivist and Research Assistant, working on the development of this book and as co-facilitator for the INTAC IORE Sustainability Jam 2022. Charisse is a curator, artist, and archivist from Hong Kong (and now Canada) with a passion for meaningful connection and collaboration that manifests in projects centring on storytelling, visibility and kinship. She has worked with various arts organizations, including the Toronto Reel Asian International Film Festival.
