标题:Intercultural teaching and learning in dance and visual arts: Co-creating an artistic-educational space among South African children and artist-educators from Cape Town and Copenhagen
出版社:The Paulo and Nita Freire International Project for Critical Pedagogy
摘要:This paper explores a one week dance/visual arts project with 9-10
year old children from that took place at the Peter Clarke Art Centre
(PCAC) in Cape Town, South Africa in February 2017. The project
is run by an intercultural group of artist-educators and researchers
residing in Denmark and South Africa. In the project the children
explore ideas of the climate, seasons and elements of nature and see
how they both make and receive imprints as human beings in the
world. It thereby casts light on what children can learn through artisticeducational
collaborations about their environment and life in general.
The paper illuminates what expressions and experiences become
possible in the co-created and ‘lived space’ (van Manen, 1990) of
this place through observations and dialogues that include arts-based
methods (Jones & Leavy, 2014) in both a critical (Apple, 2013) and
embodied learning perspective (Danuser & Sabetti, 2001; Wright,
2010). A hermeneutic-phenomenological approach (van Manen, 1990)
is used as a starting point for collecting ‘lived experiences’ of all the participants from the project week. Narratives contribute to exploring
what is specific about the space being created, what its purpose is for
the different participants, what possibilities this specific place gives
for the artistic teaching and learning processes, and what all this leads
to from the perspectives of the children. The overarching question
guiding both the teaching and the research methodology being: how
are children given a voice in all aspects of the project?.

The project is run by an intercultural group of artist-educators and researchers residing in Denmark and South Africa. In the project the children explore ideas of the climate, seasons and elements of nature and see how they both make and receive imprints in the world. It thereby casts light on what children can learn through artistic-educational collaborations about their environment and life in general. The paper illuminates what expressions and experiences become possible in the co-created and ‘lived space’ (van Manen, 1990) of this place through ‘videographic participation’ and dialogues that include arts-based methods (Jones & Leavy, 2014) in both a critical (Apple, 2013) and embodied learning perspective (Wright, 2010; Danuser & Sabetti, 2001). A hermeneutic-phenomenological approach (van Manen, 1990) is used as a starting point for collecting ‘lived experiences’ of all the participants from the project week. Narratives in written and visual formats contribute to exploring what is specific about the space being created, what its purpose for the different participants is, what is specific about the place, what possibilities this place gives for the artistic teaching and learning processes, and what all this leads to from the perspectives of the children. The overarching question guiding both the teaching and the research methodology being: how to give the children a voice in all aspects of the project?
