Materiality and atmosphere. Two American beat artists painting Europe
2019
The article discusses how European painting heavily influenced two American Beat painters in the post war years. Post-war American painting was often concerned with breaking away from traditional iconography and style, but Jay DeFeo and Joan Brown chose to engage with European traditional painting. Both artists travelled to Europe early in their careers and both declare an intense interest in European painters, paintings, and architecture. In Brown’s case particularly the works of Goya, Velazquez, and Rembrandt become scrutinized and remodeled in her pasty abstract style. De Feo, on her hand, states a particular interest in how the European cities’ distinct colors, lights and textures inspi…

Estetiske Læringsprosesser i design og spilling av brettspill
2018
Masteroppgave kunstfag KF500 - Universitetet i Agder 2018 In this thesis I have studied how aesthetical learning processes can occur in thedesign process and in play of a natural science themed board game. I have done this by designing my own board game with a biological theme, and tested it with others in two occations. I found that aesthetic learning processes had occurred in both the design process and whenplaying the game. This gave me the basis for further discussion of how learning processes and aesthetic learning processes can occur in the game medium in general.In the design process, aesthetic learning processes can occur through position exploration and aesthetic choices in the cre…

Encounters with the World through Cultural Schoolbag Workshops for Teacher Students
2021
This article raises some questions about encountering the world and subjectivation in art educational practices. Gert Biesta recently criticised the continuing emphasis on expressive and self-centred approaches and pedagogies in art education (2017, 2018). Biesta calls for a world-centred approach to education in general, as well as art education practices that move the focus from oneself to a greater openness towards the world.
 In my own art education practice, I attempt to enable this shift from what I see as an emphasis on merely the self to an emphasis on the world—a more sustainable approach to art education. I practise turning students towards the world that explores the possibi…
Materiell-kollektiv praksis som pedagogisk tilnærming for kunst og håndverk
2022
This chapter presents key characteristics of material-collective practice as a pedagogical approach, and the potential this approach can have for art education. It challenges the Norwegian individually centered education policy with its predefined and measurable competencies (KHV01-02). The proposed pedagogical approach is derived from key findings in the recently published PhD dissertation Material-Collective Practice – A Pedagogical Approach for Arts and Crafts Education developed through the weaving project “Weaving through open doorways” (2021). This empirical study consisted of micro ethnographic fieldwork during an outdoor weaving project with twenty-two seventh-grade students and the…
Art keeps us in and with the World: Gert Biesta in Conversation with Lisbet Skregelid
2022
This chapter is a conversation between Lisbet Skregelid and Gert J. J. Biesta. The point of departures are texts by Biesta that touch upon issues related to art and art education. In the conversation, Biesta tells about his concerns and worries about art and also education disappearing from art education. He refers to how art in education tend to be justified because of its usefulness for something else, and also how art sometimes becomes both too child – and student-centered focusing on expression and emergence and also too curriculum centered. Biesta proposes a world centered education that is holding the child in what he calls the middle ground as a place where human existence in and wit…
VI BLIVER SKOV BLIVER VI: Økologisk opmærksomhed i kunst og håndverk gennem kunstnerisk praksis i naturen
2022
This chapter shows possible ways to work pedagogically with the transdisciplinary theme “sustainable development” in Norwegian arts and crafts education. Through aesthetic and sensory explorations of and with visual, material and social phenomena in nature, the human-centered world view of the curriculum is challenged by a more eco-centered approach. The empirical example guiding the text is taken from the author’s participation in Grow Forest!, a performance workshop for children led by the Danish performance artist Marika Seidler at INGRID – Deep Forest Art Camp in Denmark in July 2019. The aim of the camp was to let the children experience nature as a place for artistic experimentation w…
Stones and the Destabilisation of Safe Ethical Space
2020
This article investigates the role of ethical boundaries for the academic and the artist/researcher in stabilising or destabilising colonialised positions of power. It stems from an increasingly urgent need to understand how the exclusion of pluralistic knowledge production continues in professional contexts and how this supports supremacist structural power imbalances.
