Global Exclusion and Diversity: Reading Migration and Gender in Art Schools

Freitag 24. April 2015, 18.00 – 20.15, mit anschliessendem Apéro Riche

Die Referentinnen Melissa Steyn und Marie Buscattobefragen in ihren Vorträgen Diversität, Geschlecht und Migration im Kunstfeld aus einer feministischen und postkolonialen Perspektive und weisen auf konkrete Möglichkeiten hin, Differenzen zu le­sen und kritisch zu reflektieren. Diese Anregungen haben für die ZHdK eine grosse Relevanz für Forschung, Lehre und Hochschulentwicklung – aber auch darüber hinaus für weitere institutionelle Felder.

Getting into focus for the 21st Century: Critical Diversity Literacy as an essential lens
„The ‚Critical Diversity Literacy‘ framework can be regarded as an informed analytical orientation that enables a person to ‚read‘ prevailing social relations as one would a text, recognizing the ways in which possibilities are being opened up or closed down for those differently positioned within the unfolding dynamics of specific social context. The presentation will outline ten criteria for ‚Critical Diversity Literacy‘.“

19.15h
Marie Buscatto (Université Paris 1 Panthéon Sorbonne)
Art worlds as gendered worlds
„Based on several empirial examples, this talk will try to describe not ony how women tend to find it more difficult to operate as artists than their male colleagues, but also resources and tools women, consciously or tno, use to transgress such gendered limiting processes in order to become and to remain artists over time, and sometimes, even to become famous worldwide arists!“
