Experiments in Art Research
Experiments in Art Research: How Do We Live Questions Through Art? is not a conventional research methods guide; it's an encounter for asking questions through art. Originating from the work of a community of tightly connected scholars, artists, and teachers, the book unfolds through a tapestry of moments, practices, and people, embracing the celebration of works in progress and in community. Rooted in the practice of permission-giving, the narrative intertwines personal stories—laying bare the transformative power of unconventional teaching methods, risky endeavors, and the breaking of scholarly norms—and begins by understanding that “art” and “research” are not separate. After ...
Walking as Critical Inquiry
This book is a transdisciplinary, international collection situated within a genealogy of experimental walking practices in the arts, arts-based research, and emergent walking practices in education. It brings together emerging cartographies of relation amongst walking practices ranging across arts-based, ecological, activist, decolonising, queer, critical and posthuman modes of inquiry. Its particular investment is in the proliferation of artful modes of inquiry that open up speculative practices and concepts of walking as an orientation for pedagogy, inquiry, and the everyday, resisting the gaze of privilege and the relentless commodification of human and nonhuman life processes. This is important work for the burgeoning demand for creative methodologies in the social sciences, and more specifically, for arts-based educational research.
The Bloomsbury Handbook of Creative Research Methods
This book provides both an overview of, and an insight into, the rapidly expanding field of creative research methods. The contributors, from four continents, range from doctoral students through to independent and practice-based researchers to senior professors, providing a clear view of the applicability of creative research methods in all types of research work. Chapters offer examples of creative research methods in practice, and advice on how to transfer or adapt those methods for different disciplines and settings. Research ethics and research quality are considered throughout. This is a timely handbook which provides information for novice researchers and inspiration for experienced researchers, and is essential reading for anyone interested in creative research methods.
Monument to Habitat Compensation Island
Monument to Habitat Compensation Island is a research project and publication that starts with this tiny artificial island in the Arabian Gulf and addresses its implications and relations within the global landscape. It brings together regional and international creative practitioners and thinkers to consider Habitat Compensation Island as a focusing device through which we might approach the convergence of culture, commerce, and environmental reparations and the tensions their particular interests produce, amplified in the shadow of rapid climate changes.The contributors to this publication offer multiple perspectives and contexts from the hyperlocal to the global, from the specifics of the...
Decolonizing Science in Latin American Art
Projects that bring the ‘hard’ sciences into art are increasingly being exhibited in galleries and museums across the world. In a surge of publications on the subject, few focus on regions beyond Europe and the Anglophone world. Decolonizing Science in Latin American Art assembles a new corpus of art-science projects by Latin American artists, ranging from big-budget collaborations with NASA and MIT to homegrown experiments in artists’ kitchens. While they draw on recent scientific research, these art projects also ‘decolonize’ science. If increasing knowledge of the natural world has often gone hand-in-hand with our objectification and exploitation of it, the artists studied here ...
The Diary of Heinrich Witt (10 vols.)
The diary of Heinrich Witt (1799-1892) is the most extensive private diary written in Latin America known to us today. Written in English by a German migrant who lived in Lima, it is a unique source for the history of Peru, and for international trade and migration.
Entre el río y la montaña
Entre el río y la montaña es el resultado de una investigación arqueológica sobre la ocupación temprana del Cauca medio colombiano, llevada a cabo en el sitio La Pochola, el cual forma parte de un grupo de sitios precerámicos localizados en esta región y datados entre los últimos momentos del Pleistoceno final y el Holoceno medio. El alto número de sitios reportados hasta el momento confirma que esta región fue clave en el poblamiento y dispersión de grupos humanos a lo largo de la Cordillera central. Probablemente, sus condiciones ecológicas y su posición estratégica de acceso a varios pisos altitudinales actuaron como atractores de poblaciones humanas, que encontraron las condiciones de vida para colonizar y ocupar esta región cordillerana. El origen de estos grupos sigue siendo desconocido.
Martín Alonso Pinzón, un olvido injusto
Hasta que Martín Alonso Pinzón no regresa de Roma, de un viaje comercial, la expedición al Nuevo Mundo, no toma cuerpo. Martín Alonso, no sólo sufraga una parte importante del viaje, también proporciona las mejores naves y convence a los pilotos y a la marinería más expertos para embarcar en una aventura tan incierta. Gracias a su gran experiencia náutica, Martín navegó siempre en vanguardia, reparó averías, conjuró motines, y desde su carabela Pinta, Juan Rodríguez Bermejo, gritó la palabra que cambiaría el curso de la Historia: «¡Tierra!». La relación entre Colon y Pinzón fue buena hasta la llegada al nuevo continente, pero convertido ya Colón en Almirante, cambiará...
