NOIT BANAI / MARIAMA DIAGNE / MONIKA HALKORT

Learning Diaspora

©

Noit Banai © Niko Havranek

What happens when diaspora enters art education? How do we choose words and concepts to adequately translate lived experiences of migration, exile, and displacement? What are the effects of institutionalising and ‘departmentalising’ multifaceted diasporic histories and aesthetics? How do we choose methods that might grasp messy, entangled, complex diasporic realities? What enters a diasporic bibliography or curriculum, and what remains unsaid? How can the students’ personal experiences of diasporic belonging become part of – without being absorbed into – a formalised teaching-and-learning process?

This panel invites three researchers and educators specialising in different fields of art and culture and affiliated with different institutions to share their modes of working, thinking and sharing while navigating diaspora.
