FLAG – Re-turning the Educational Turn
Dates: 27 April 2010
LAUNCH PARTY: Tuesday April 27th @ 5.30
The Triangle Space
Chelsea College of Art & Design
16 John Islip Street, London, SW1P 4JU

Through a three-day intervention into the public gallery that is the Triangle Space, FLAG returns to, explores and plays with the ‘educational turn’ by re-turning the exploration of art and pedagogy to the art educational institution itself, in this case Chelsea College of Art and Design. The event is a shared venture amongst participants in dialogue with each other and the institution, the latter understood as both a physical entity and as a discursive arena. Speakers from inside and outside the art educational institution are invited to come and explore this topic within a setting of artworks that also engage with these dialogues. Key issues for pedagogic practice are methods and sites of knowledge-transfer, the artist as educator, collaboration and participation and the idealisation of art education. FL?G intends to encourage a process-based approach, stimulating dialogue rather than aiming at conclusions.
Contributers / Exhibitors / Speakers:
Cradeaux Alexander, Dennis Atkinson, Ricardo Basbaum/TrAIN, Alexander Blackman, Marsha Bradfield/ Scott Schwager, Chloe Briggs, Jack Burton/Janina Lange, Joe Campbell/Oscar Oldershaw, Hannah Clayden, Claxton & Major Collective, Neil Cummings, Mario D’Agostino, Lucy Dixon, Linda Drew, Rebecca Fortnum, Emily Pethick, Malcolm Quinn, Rosalie Schweiker, Terry Smith, William Tang, Ana Laura Lopez de la Torre, Rehana Zaman and Barbara Zanditon.
