Deadline for Proposals for panels: 30th November 2022.
In Person Conference June 9 and 10 2022.
Official Poster : GSA-On-Not-Knowing-FINAL
The Conference aims to share and explore the various approaches, methods and understandings of artists who teach in the field of higher education and beyond.
How do artists teach in higher education, galleries and beyond, within the current climate. If not knowing is crucial to making art2, is it also important in the teaching of it?
As artist-teachers, what might we learn from each other, and how do artists’ pedagogies change and evolve?
Conference will be held at The Glasgow School of Art, convened in partnership with UNIArts Helsinki.
