Conversation

Participants discuss collaborative art practices and questions including: How has the collaborative process affected your work? How did you come to develop your way of working? How has the art world reacted to this way of thinking? What is the importance of the object created during the process? How has working within the participatory/educational context influenced your practice? How have your artist residencies affected the participating communities? Can artists in schools and communities ask questions that might not otherwise be asked, particularly regarding issues of power? Why should there be a highlight on social, educational, and business practices that incorporate complex art-making strategies? How do we work to show policy makers, educators, art institutions, and social communities the value of integrated practices? What would we like to have happen next based on these questions and this conversation?
