DSD DESIS Lab The Design Society Development (DSD) DESIS Lab is a multi-disciplinary community of practice, based at the Faculty of Art, Design and Architecture, University of Johannesburg, that seeks to better understand how design can best serve the emerging needs of broader society, specifically in the face of staggering inequality and rapid change in Gauteng, South Africa. Our lab is currently focused on challenging the ethnocentric view of the world brought about through modernization, and hence plays particular interest to our local context, cultural diversity and local needs. As designers we undertake design research projects through participatory, and preferably multi-stakeholder, human- centred methodologies in order to bring about appropriately considered change. The DSD DESIS Lab includes participants from design, the social sciences, economics and art. Activities undertaken within the auspices of the lab include practice, research activities and information dissemination. The DESIS Network is an international network of 48 design labs, based in design schools and design-oriented universities, actively involved in promoting and supporting sustainable change. The DESIS association was formed between the Politenico di Milano (Italy), The New School (USA), University of Arts London (UK), Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro (Brazil), Jiangnan University (China), and Tongji University (China). In June 2014 and the DSD DESIS Lab was accepted as the fourth lab based in Africa shortly thereafter. The DSD DESIS Lab is also a promoter of the international DESIS Food Cluster together with Polimi DESIS Lab, Milan and Strategic Design Senarios (SDS), Brussels. The DSD DESIS Lab meets monthly to interrogate research, projects, methods and products that impact on the intersection and interplay between design, society and development in our specific context. We understand design as referring to the conscious choices we make in creating systems (community, society and productive systems) and technologies (products, artefacts, communicative technologies, systems integration); society as the human context that includes the broader social systems of culture, economy, politics and environment; and development as the discourse and practice of positive and considered change. We draw on critical political economy, social sciences, appropriate technology development, participatory and human-centered design, and other design approaches in our practice and research.

DST-NRF South African Research Chair in South African Art and Visual Culture (SARChI) Prof Brenda Schmahmann is the SARChI Research Chair in South African Art and Visual Culture. Hosted by the Faculty of Art, Design and Architecture and integrated with the work of the faculty, this prestigious position is funded by the Department of Science and Technology (DST) and administered by the National Research Foundation (NRF). The SARChI Research Chair serves as a forum for initiatives in research by not only Prof Schmahmann but also postdoctoral research fellows, postgraduate students and others working with her. Research falling under the ambit of the SARChI Research Chair in South African Art and Visual Culture is in art history as well as disciplines and fields which are cognate to it, such as design history and fashion theory. With particular expertise in gender, public art and the deployment of art and design in the context of community projects in South Africa, those working under the ambit of the SARChI Chair produce research and acquire postgraduate qualifications that have immediate social relevance and value. In a context where there is an imperative to re-write histories and develop a richer understanding of South African identities, and where art museums are redefining their collecting policies as well as seeking curatorial methods for visualising the past and present, there is a high demand for the research and capacities of qualified visual theorists. Art historians and vi- sual theorists are also vital to the art gallery sector, where they play an immediate role in enabling markets for artists, as well as in aspects of arts management. Programmes in art and design at South African secondary and tertiary institutions depend on appropriately qualified and capable theorists who are able to offer instruction in histories about art, design and visual culture, and the ways in which these potentially inform contemporary art and design practices. In summary, then, the SARChI Research Chair in South African Art and Visual Culture provides a forum for producing significant research with immediate social relevance and impact for the heritage, museum, gallery and education sectors, while also developing a new generation of postgraduates with qualifications and capacities to continue and expand this work.

20 Graduate School of Architecture (GSA)

The Graduate School of Architecture (GSA) was founded in 2015 as a separate, au- tonomous school within the Department of Architecture at UJ. It is the youngest and arguably the most dynamic school on the African continent. In two short years, it has quadrupled its intake of Master’s students, making it now one of the largest postgradu- ate schools in the country. We run the world-famous Unit System method of teaching (which we’ve rather cheekily called Unit System Africa), first pioneered by the Architectural Association in London in 1971. In 2015, we began with three Units; in 2017 there are six. We plan to contin- ue this growth, expanding by at least two new Units per year, until our target of 12 postgraduate Units by 2020. It’s a competitive, innovative and challenging system and we think it’s the best way to get the best out of both staff and students. Most of our teaching staff are part-time practitioners with national and international reputations and links. Some 75% of students elect to re-join the same Unit in the second year of the programme and, with at least two new Units being added per year, the choice we offer in terms of interests, research agendas, contexts and perspectives is unparalleled. In addition to our studios at the Faculty of Art, Design & Architecture (FADA), we also have an inner-city ‘base’, the GA_P (Graduate Architecture Platform). The GSA runs a host of public programmes, including the GSA – Boogertman + Partners International Lecture Series, which in 2016 will bring seven international architects, including Andrew Freear of the Rural Studio and Bjarke Ingels of B.I.G. Copenhagen, London & New York to Johannesburg. It also offers local architects like Thomas Chapman and Kate Otten a platform for sharing their work with a new generation of up-and-coming architects. Our FADA Gallery, Write of Passage, features student and staff work on a changing basis and the end-of-year show, the GSA Summer Show in November is now a fixture on the Johannesburg architectural calendar.

21 Visual Identities in Art and Design (VIAD) The Visual Identities in Art and Design (hereafter ‘VIAD’) Research Centre was established in June 2007, as part of UJ’s initiative to strengthen itself as a reputable, research-intensive institution in relation to the broader South African and international academic communities. From its inception as one of six new UJ Research Centres, VIAD has developed into a nationally and internationally established locus of research. After 10 years of existence, VIAD is widely recognised as a highly respected base of knowledge formation around the thematics of visual identities, both within South Africa, and increasingly, internationally.

Research undertaken in VIAD is located within theoretical frameworks that address identity construction and its readings in contemporary and historical contexts, with specific application visual practice, visual culture, visual representation and trans-/inter-disciplinary theorisations thereof. While emphasis is placed on the construction of contemporary emergent and transforming South African visual identities, this is considered in relation to South Africa’s positioning as part of the African continent and the Global South. VIAD takes takes a strongly Practice-Led approach to research. Research may take the form of written outputs (solo or co-authored scholarly books, academic journal articles, chapters in edited volumes, guest-edited special editions of journals); creative production (solo or curated exhibitions, installations, public art, collaborative projects, design and other visual products); curatorial practices (exhibitions curated around particular conceptual thematics); and multiple platforms for knowledge dissemination and exchange (conferences, panel discussions, colloquia) that have both broad audience reach and specialist interest. Post-Doctoral Fellowships, Research Associateships and PhD in Art and Design may be applied for.

22 23 Scholarship of Teaching and Learning in Art and Design (STAND) at FADA is a critical and multi-disciplinary platform for art, design and art educators, students, communities and researchers to present scholarship, research and innovative teaching practices related to social justice themes in learning in the creative and visual fields. The platform has been in existence since 2015 and continues to play a key role in supporting teaching and learning, curriculum transformation in the Faculty of Art, Design and Architecture at the University of Johannesburg and is presently organised by Brenden Gray, Shashi Cullinan Cook and Tariq Toffa. Every year STAND hosts a seminar series open to the public that is generated by Faculty and students, and gives Art, Design and Creative Arts students enrolled in the PGCE (Post-graduate certificate in education) to present and deepen their practice as educators.In 2016 STAND hosted a very successful ‘Ethics and Decolonization Seminar Series’ that spoke directly to concerns being raised at the time by student protesters related to the commodification of higher education, fee increases, epistemic exclusion, decolonization and transformation. Recent projects include the seminar, ‘Did Someone say Decolonisation? Did Someone say Freedom?’ featuring Professor Anthony Bogues (Brown University) and Professor Handel Kashope Wright (University of British Columbia); ‘the FADA Curriculum change mini-conference’; the doctoral seminar: ‘The Formal and Informal Knowledges of First-year Art and Design Students’ presented by Shashi Cook, the mini-conference, ‘Decoloniality: new roles for history and theory in design and architectural education?. Forthcoming is the volume, produced collaboratively with VIAD is ‘Critical Pedagogies in South African Visual Culture Education’. In the next few years STAND is looking to launch a series of research studies around student access and success in Art, Design and Architecture. COLLEGE OF BUSINESS AND ECONOMICS
