Practising Duets #3: Filipa César and Harun Morrison

The Ignorant Art Schools will be hosting the third in their Practicing Duets public talks series on Tuesday 7 May at the CCA Goldsmiths.

Traversing artistic, design, curatorial, and research-led practices in the humanities and beyond, Practising Duets is a series of trans-disciplinary events organised by The Ignorant Art Schools Collective, a research group of the British Art Network (BAN).

This event is a hosted conversation between Filipa César and Harun Morrison, two leading practitioners who are coming together for a conversation sharing their reflections on knowledge formation, alternative art pedagogies and decoloniality. The event will be chaired by Edgar Schmitz, Director of the Art Research MPhil/ PhD programme at Goldsmiths.

The Ignorant Art Schools Collective explores intersections of alternative art pedagogy and new forms of collaborative curatorial agency, the latter often developed in Global Majority contexts and then evident in recent European large scale art events such as ruangrupa’s curation of Documenta 15 in 2022. The Collective’s research charts the organisational praxis, spatial politics and power structures of these new forms with the aim of providing working models for enhancing socially conscious and transformative approaches to curatorial practice, art education and knowledge production. The collective’s main researchers are Sophia Yadong Hao (Cooper Gallery, University of Dundee), Dr Edgar Schmitz (Goldsmiths), Dr Paul Stewart and Prof Sarah Perks (both Teesside University).

Please reserve a place for this event.
