Description
Part of The Culture Capital Exchange's Inside Out Festival 2017
The last decade has seen significant growth in the number of practice-based or practice-led research degrees offered by universities and art schools. This event will examine the problems and prospects for such courses. How do students and supervisors understand the relationship between the practice and thesis components of the project? How should they do so? What are the broader effects on artistic practice of training within such a framework? Ultimately, are practice-based research degrees fit for purpose?
Speakers to include:
Dr. Jonathan Clark (Head of Research, Trinity Laban Conservatoire)
Dr. Jane Wildgoose (Artist, Researcher, Broadcaster)
Chair:
Dr. Sacha Golob (King's College London, Philosophy and Director CPVA)
