Situating Artistic-Anthropological Research
Published: 3 October 2017
This project with the University of Edinburgh, University of Aberdeen and three arts organisations in Deveron Projects, Atlas Arts and Collective Gallery explores inventive methods of conducting situated artistic-anthropological research.
Project Description
This project engages three highly innovative arts organisations - Collective (Edinburgh), Deveron Projects (Huntly) and ATLAS Arts (Portree) - to develop an ‘exploded-view’ of artistic-anthropological research (antart). These organisations share an investment in Social Practice, situated knowledges and the anthropological-turn. Blending the disciplines of contemporary art and anthropology, the research will develop inventive methods to conduct situated artistic-anthropological research that both contributes to, and helps us to better understand, the R&D, programming, commissioning and evaluation of art organisations. This knowledge exchange will make a significant artistic contribution to programming that will equally engage custodians, makers, scholars and audiences in the processes of creative research.
