Rehearsing Scenarios is a long-term exploratory research project for and in “art/ist teaching” which aims to develop and disseminate new teaching strategies in art education. The project has the goal to shift education towards embodying art as a radical modality for responding to current urgencies as well as to the unknown.
Rehearsing Scenarios is a long-term exploratory research project for and in “art/ist teaching” which aims to develop and disseminate new teaching strategies in art education. The project has the goal to shift education towards embodying art as a radical modality for responding to current urgencies as well as to the unknown. Combined methodological approaches from diverse fields of academic research and art pedagogy are further developed to help generate “rehearsals” for arts-based learning within existing art-school contexts and spaces. Rehearsing here becomes a “modus operandi, a medium, a site of representation and reflection for artistic [teaching] processes” (Buchmann et al. 2016). With the contribution of students, teachers and peer researchers the core-team of the project aims to build a growing participatory platform, where contributors collaboratively rehearse artistic modes of acting in and towards more experimental, artistic, socially engaged, and critical forms of education. The project includes several subprojects related to the contexts of teaching and researching in the field of Art Education at ZHdK.
