ARC Linkage: Curating Third Space: The value of art-science collaboration
October 1, 2015
 |
The Australia Council is an industry partner in arts-related projects funded by the Australia Research Council (ARC). |
Summary
Curating Third Space: The value of art-science collaboration investigates the importance of art-science in the contemporary research landscape. The project focuses on the human impact of art-science collaboration through case-studies of major international art-science projects. These studies are an opportunity to understand new audiences for art, and are being considered in the context of emerging new interdisciplinary cultural organisations globally.
Methodology
The research is applying an innovative psychosocial method called the “visual matrix”, designed to enable responses in a group setting to an art object, process or event. Imaginative and emotional responses are stimulated with the matrix, which has been applied in various fields including art, health, social care and citizenship. The visual matrix is a tested methodology that allows a deeper understanding of the impact of art.
