2016 TAEA Conference #TAEA16 Presents: Janeil Engelstad Artist, Curator, Educator and Producer www.janeilengelstad.net About Janeil - Janeil Engelstad initiates multiform, collaborative projects that address social, historical and environmental concerns. Valuing the potential of collaborations, her process for this work includes embedding herself in communities, deep listening, extensive research and building coalitions between arts institutions, schools, government agencies, NGOs and others. These projects often create a place for individuals and groups who do not have access to art making opportunities or a voice in society to express their identity, experiences and points of view. Engelstad has led arts education organizations, large and small, in New York, Los Angeles and Chicago. Her success in these roles led to her work as a member of The College Board's National Arts and Education Task Force, which developed recommendations for the United States Congress as part of the national arts based learning initiative connected to STEM and other Pre-K – 12 programs. Ms. Engelstad has taught and lectured at universities throughout North America and Europe and in 2006 she was a Fulbright Scholar at the Academy of Fine Arts and Design in Bratislava, Slovak Republic. She is a member of the Social Practice Art Research Center at the University of California, Santa Cruz and the Founding Director of Make Art with Purpose (MAP) an organization that produces international projects addressing social and environmental concerns that often include arts education as a core component of m ake art methodology and process. wit hpu rpo se To learn more visit: janeilengelstad.net & http://makeartwithpurpose.net/.

Her practice is strongly informed by her interdisciplinary collaborations in research-based, on-site projects, such as Théâtre Evolutif (Bordeaux, 2011), The Cook, the Farmer, His Wife and Their Neighbour (Stedelijk Goes West, Am- sterdam, 2009), and Dry Toilet (Caracas, 2003). She translates these investigations into text-based drawings and large-scale architectural installations ("case studies"). Her work has been featured in exhibi- tions throughout Europe and the Americas, including the São Paulo (1996, 2006) and Venice biennials (1993, 2003, 2009). She has received numerous grants and awards, including the Hugo Boss Prize (2000) and the Vera List Center for Arts and Politics Fellowship at The New School in New York (2007). Since 2011, she has been a professor at the University of Fine Arts/HFBK in Hamburg. potrc.org "I have three different practices in my life. One is on-site participatory projects, which I do in collaboration with other professionals and with my students. The second is architectural studies, and the third is drawing narratives." - Potrč Janeil Engelstad: Could you talk about the role of collaboration in your work? How do you see collaborative and interdisciplinary practices and research contrib- uting solutions to critical problems, such as issues connected to climate change? Marjetica Potrč: For several years, I have been focused on participatory proj- ects with my students in Hamburg.(1) We do projects using participatory practic- es in places around the world.

    Politics, the Environment and Art Across a Changing Political Landscape: Interview with Maja and Reuben Fowkes Politics, the Environment and Art Across a Changing Political Landscape: Interview with Maja and Reuben Fowkes Maja and Reuben Fowkes's essay, "Green Critique in a Red Environment: East Euro- pean Art and Ecology under Socialism" can be found in ARTMargins print journal (#3.2. 2014) as part of this online/offline project. In the following interview, they reflect upon contemporary artists that are addressing environmental and sustainabil- ity concerns, as well as larger issues connected to these themes. Roșia Montană protest poster after a drawing by Dan Perjovschi, 2013. Image Roșia Montană protest poster after a drawing by Dan Perjovschi, 2013. Image courtesy of Dan Perjovschi. Janeil Engelstad: Taking a broad look at Central European artists working today in ecology and with sustainability, do you sense that there is a collective art/environmental scene? And if so, do you see this work as strengthening the larger Environmental Movement? Maja and Reuben Fowkes: It is certainly possible to identify various trends and flows within contemporary Central European art that are connected to the spread of ecological thinking, although, in our opinion, without coalescing into a movement. Environmental activism is one pole around which artists have come together, but again this tends to be related to specific issues or campaigns. In that sense, it was interesting that when in 2013 mass environmental protests sprung up in Romania over plans to develop destructive open-pit gold mining in Transylvania, on the whole artists took part more as citizens than by addressing the issue through their art practice.

    Originally published in “Porównania” 7/2010, p. 43-56. WHAT SORT OF HISTORY DOES CENTRAL AND EASTERN EUROPE NEED? THE CHANCES OF ORAL HISTORY1 MICHAŁ KIERZKOWSKI2 (Adam Mickiewicz University in Poznań, Poland) Keywords: oral history, cultural memory, historical policy, Middle-East Europe, historical education Słowa kluczowe: historia mówiona, pamięć kulturowa, polityka historyczna, Europa Środkowo-Wschodnia, edukacja historyczna Abstract: Michał Kierzkowski, WHAT SORT OF HISTORY DOES CENTRAL AND EASTERN EUROPE NEED? THE CHANCES OF ORAL HISTORY. “PORÓWNANIA” 7, 2010, Vol. VII, pp. 43-56, ISSN 1733-165X. In my article I consider the necessity of distinct means of historical research in the Middle-East Europe. My analysis is divided into two parts. The first part is a presentation of a contention between different Western and Eastern approaches to own past. To illustrate this issue I give two examples – first one relating to historical sphere, second one relating to social and cultural sphere of reality. These two perspective constitute a justification of a title question and attempt to answer. The second part is a proposition of answer. Here, considering few methodological and theoretical problems raised by Polish researchers, I am trying to find inside these problems an adaptation for oral history as a research method which gains more and more interests. By using some general issues as cultural memory, historical education or historical policy, I concentrate on a peculiarity of contemporary history of the Middle-East Europe. To illustrate my considerations on chances and possibilities of oral history, I refer to some projects from post communistic countries.

  • 2016 Annual Report
    Photo Credit: Jie Yang TransCultural Exchange’s 2016 Annual Report The Artist Buildng at 300 Summer St. Unit 36 Boston, MA 02210 617.670-0370 www.transculturalexchange.org 2016 ANNUAL REPORT Executive Summary 2016 was a big year for TransCultural Exchange. We not only staged our biggest yet International Conference on Opportunities in the Arts, but we started to create an archive of all the presentations so that artists everywhere could have access to the information presented. We also moved our offices to The Artist Building at 300 Summer Street – putting us in the heart of downtown Boston, steps away from the subway, train, airport and harbor and into a building of artist studios with a printer, gallery, framer and lively café. And, we embarked upon an agreement with Laval University and the City of Québec City to take our 2018 Conference out of our home base – indeed, out of the US – and into Canada. We also said good-bye to some board and advisory board members (Lynne Allen and Johann Pousette), thanking them for their exemplary service and welcoming in Susan Cohen, Jan Hanvik, Beth Kantowitz and Greg Stone to take their place. Most significant by far was our 2016 Conference and its archive. Its title – Expanding Worlds – said it all. This year’s theme originally was chosen to build upon on the excitement generated by Engaging Minds - the last Conference’s exploration of possibilities for artists to explore new cultures, mindsets and technologies. As time went on, though, the title proved even more apt, as new sponsors signed on and the scope of the programming grew.

  • Next Practices
    Next Practices in Art Museum Education Resource Guide It gives me a great deal of pleasure to introduce AAMD’s first edition of “Next Practices in Art Museum Education.” Intended to take us beyond proven “best practices,” this publication is meant to both share and spark new ideas and innovation. I hope that it also provides practical information on how museums start, support, and evaluate such programs. When this project began, we thought of choosing a representative sample of programs submitted by AAMD members. As it progressed, however, and as we saw the range and variety of what’s happening in museums across North America, it seemed only right to share as many and as widely as possible. This publication, therefore, includes all 100 submissions, covering interactions between a given audience and museum staff, whether on-site or off and whether virtual or physical. This Resource Guide, exclusively available to AAMD members, also includes practical details on each program, from sources of funding to forms of evaluation. I hope you find it interesting, useful, and inspirational! Lori Fogarty Chair, AAMD Education & Community Issues Committee Director, Oakland Museum of California Next Practices in Art Museum Education • Resource Guide 2 Albright-Knox Art Gallery New Digital Resources: Tiki-Toki Timelines and Historypin Walking Tours he Albright-Knox Art Gallery has launched a series of education and exploration resources related T to its institutional history and its various collections.
