Proposals are invited for issue 45 of the Engage Journal: Class and Inequality. This issue will focus on issues of class, socio-economic disadvantage and inequality in relation to gallery education and engagement programmes and the related sector.
Edited by Professor Sarah Perks.
Deadline for proposals: 11 January 2021
If you are interested in contributing to this issue, please send an informal proposal of around 200-300 words, your job/freelance title and contact details to editor@engage.org by Monday, 5pm, 11 January 2021.
We are interested in contributions from colleagues in the UK and worldwide that concern the topic of class and inequality and specifically where this connects to gallery and visual art education. Proposals can address questions such as:
- How can we further understand where issues of class affect the practice of gallery and visual art education?
- What are the leading examples of inclusive and intersectional arts education practice that relate to class?
- How has academic theory influenced sector practices and engagement methods?
- What has been the explicit relationship between class, inequality and this year’s Black Lives Movement?
