Finding Voice: a Visual Arts Approach to Engaging Social Change, Kim S Revised Pages Finding Voice Revised Pages THE NEW PUBLIC SCHOLARSHIP series editors Lonnie Bunch, Director, National Museum of African-American History and Culture Julie Ellison, Professor of American Culture, University of Michigan Robert Weisbuch, President, Drew University The New Public Scholarship encourages alliances between scholars and commu- nities by publishing writing that emerges from publicly engaged and intellectually consequential cultural work. The series is designed to attract serious readers who are invested in both creating and thinking about public culture and public life. Under the rubric of “public scholar,” we embrace campus-based artists, humanists, cultural crit- ics, and engaged artists working in the public, nonprofit, or private sector. The editors seek useful work growing out of engaged practices in cultural and educational arenas. We are also interested in books that offer new paradigms for doing and theorizing public scholarship itself. Indeed, validating public scholarship through an evolving set of concepts and arguments is central to The New Public Scholarship. The universe of potential contributors and readers is growing rapidly. We are teaching a generation of students for whom civic education and community service learning are quite normative. The civic turn in art and design has affected educational and cultural institutions of many kinds. In light of these developments, we feel that The New Public Scholarship offers a timely innovation in serious publishing. Civic Engagement in the Wake of Katrina, edited by Amy Koritz and George J.

Finding Voice represents the notion that the visual arts are an expres- sion of the aspirations of people in their hope for a more just and democratic society. It emphasizes the power and potential of collective voice in the visual portrayal of historical injustice and the envisioning of a new paradigm in which to move forward. This book, then, values the notion of voice as key to agency and the responsibility to act. The specific focus of this book, in post- apartheid South Africa, necessi- tates a multidisciplinary approach straddling the fields of arts education and developmental studies and requires examination of the sociological, political, historical, and cultural aspects of society. As there is no comfortable disci- plinary home for such an investigation, this book crosses disciplinary bound- aries, drawing on diverse concepts and understandings in order to enable the creation of a space that is able to explore, invent, imagine, or reject certain traditional notions. These concepts are akin to the practice of art-making, in that they can question the “givens” and imagine new possibilities. In this way, art, or visual voice, can be a pathway to navigate transformative ways of becoming. The following questions animate my inquiry: 1. How can creative strategies respond to imperatives for democratic change? 2. How can collectives organized around creative activity effectively re- spond to social trauma? Revised Pages 2 • Finding Voice 3. To what extent do current government institutions impede or facilitate art and culture in fulfilling potentially transformative social roles? Answering these questions involves innovations in design, methodology, im- plementation, and evaluation. Finding Voice values co-cr eation, community participation, and citizen action. In this exploration, I feature the visual arts as a mode of knowledge that requires keeping ourselves reflexively open to diversity and to the unexpected, in order to discern those elements that do not fit into our theories or dominant codes. This book proposes a primary role for activists who move beyond traditional theories of social justice to advo- cate new frameworks that are responsive to current social and political needs, through learning from the history of social activism through the arts and then building on those approaches. As activists and facilitators, we explore contexts or conditions that facilitate the emergence and maintenance of new possibilities of meaning and action. Voices and stories from the field provide a bottom- up approach to unlocking some of those theories and

  • Traveling Suitcase Activations-Joburg WG
    Johannesburg Working Group The main case study/story of the The Johannesburg Research Group is a focus on the work of the Medu Art Ensemble (1977 - 1985) Our research story/starting theses/theories informing study/research questions are across three research strings, namely, 1) travelling concepts, 2) radical models of arts education of the 1970s and 3) the activation of historical experiences in claiming histories. The central string is that of radical models of arts education. The project exists as part of a wider recuperative project that seeks to map histories of arts education in southern Africa with the view to producing a more comprehensive understanding of how imported colonial models have come to assert a particular understanding of “arts education” that has often marginalised or attempted to erase the presence of existing local models. The research group aims to demonstrate the active presence of a series of local models that challenge the hegemonic status of imported models. Here we take our cue from Eduard Glissant’s understanding of histories as: The history you ignored – or didn’t make – was it not history? (The complex and mortal anhistorical). Might you not be more and more affected by it, in your fallowness as much as in your harvest? In your thought as much as in your will? Just as I was affected (cit) by ​ ​ the history I wasn’t making, and could not ignore? (1969, 23) ​ In an earlier document the Johannesburg Research Group described its focus in the following ways: The Johannesburg Working group finds resonance in the themes and aims of the international cluster project, ‘Histories’ which are broadly; modes of ‘inhabiting’ histories, history as a ‘resource’, disturbing hegemonial narratives of history and animating, activating counter-hegemonial narratives.
