Open Call

The Independent School Day Show

Open call for teaching artists

Deadline: Jun 24, 2017

Event: Jul 21, 2017
 

Mining the gap between artistic practice and educational process, the Independent School Day Show is seeking proposals from artist-educators working in any medium; Who are interested in an interdisciplinary dialogue; who want to show a recent project or art piece, either by students or of their own; Who wish to hold an off-session lecture, talk, or class in any format on Jul 21, 2017.

Main themes to consider are investigation, failure and punishment, conformity versus diversity, collaboration, propaganda in education. What is the role of the artist in today's democratic society? What is the role of the art educator? Does teaching art in an institution require conformity? Does it compromise ideals of a creative process?
