Diversity Stories

Het nieuwe academiejaar is voorzichtig begonnen en dat betekent dat wij ook weer terug zijn met een nieuwe aflevering van Radio ArtEZ voor ArtEZ studium generale. Dit najaar staat o.a. een nieuw samenwerkingsproject met online magazine Mister Motley op de agenda, getiteld Land. In dit project wordt de relatie tussen mens, land, eigendom en de consequenties voor klimaatafbraak onderzocht. Kunstenaars en denkers zijn uitgenodigd om hun perspectieven te delen op de klimaatafbraak, ideeën over eigendom, territorium, kolonialisme en Inheemse kennis. Geheel Covid-proof in online events, podcasts of door hun gedachten te verwoorden in essays of films. Het startschot wordt gegeven door schrijver en ArtEZ docent creative writing  Fiep van Bodegom, die zich in een essay met dit thema uiteenzet. Haar essay is te lezen op de website van Mister Motley en de website van ArtEZ Studium Generale. In deze aflevering van Radio ArtEZ gaat Dennis Gaens in gesprek met Van Bodegom.   Lees het essay hier: https://www.mistermotley.n

  In this episode of Radio ArtEZ, we return to Fillip Studios. As artists, these alumni of our academy focus on the cutting edge of art, science and society. You might remember them from the miniseries they did within our feed here. In those episodes, they showed us there outlook on these various disciplines. Now, interns Moritz Brill and Iris Beek, both students at Fine Art and Design in Education, turn the gaze on Fillip Studios itself. An exploration of how art can attach itself to social issues, how it can be a unique viewpoint in societal challenges. But you will hear all that in this episode. Without further ado, I’ll hand you over to Moritz and Iris. Fillip Studios: https://www.fillipstudios.com/ Produced by Ondercast for Studium Generale ArtEZ.

This six part miniseries is based on the conference The Roadmap to Equality In The Arts that took place 18 January 2020 and dealt with the undeniable under- and misrepresentation of women artists, Women of Colour, non-binary and genderqueer artists in the Dutch art world. With performances, keynotes, presentations and panels the conference attempted to establish stepping-stones on the path to gender equality in the arts by raising awareness, gathering data and mobilising existing networks and collective knowledge.   This sixth episode contains the closing panel of the conference on models of change. About what is really needed to bring about this much needed change and how we can be solidary catalysts. Special attention is paid to emotional labour and only fighting if you have enough agency. And about escaping the pornographic rhythm that neoliberalism forces us into. It features Nancy Jouwe, Delphine Bedel, Nagaré Willemsen, Yin Ying Wong and Katherine MacBride, Galit Eilat, Petra van Brabandt and memb

Providing new models and giving access to experience and knowledge about new ways of acting, working, experiencing, learning and enjoying together. This fifth episode features Yin Yin Wong and Katherine MacBride of Tender Center and focusses on what an intersectional approach can possibly entail.

Although female students dominate the art schools in the Netherlands it is startling to realize that the art-world continues to be male dominated. And even though art schools should offer safe and challenging spaces, sexist and racist mechanisms are still at play today. It features Petra Van Brabandt who offers a passionate and razor-sharp argument about the challenges that art education faces and the pitfalls it comes across.   For informa

It features Agnès Saal of the French Ministry of Culture on data monitoring and evaluation as the only way to influence policies, Galit Eilat on her pioneering research into the collection of the Van Abbemuseum and Pauline Salet on her research into the percentage of female artists in eight Du

What models of change are there? How can we act together, from an intersectional and inclusive perspective? It features the complete keynote by Nancy Jouwe who kicked off the conference by making a strong case for intersectional thinking and acting in the arts and articulated the hindrances and accelerators for this in the Dutch art world.   https://studiumgenerale.artez.nl/nl/agenda/the+roadmap+to+eq

These are exactly the times to rethink education because what is happening right now is showing us that just staying with the normal won’t do! Together with the Art education as Critical Tactics team of ArtEZ we bring you: No School Station, a four part miniseries on education outside of the educational institutions. In this fourth and final episode we focus on learning, because learning in all its forms has been at the center of every episode of our No School Station and we also want to end with it.  We want to say goodbye to you by exploring different ideas and spaces for learning, sometimes unconventional and sometimes de-institutionalized, keeping always in mind the connection and the relation to the main actor within the learning process, aka the learner.  Now it's up to you to think along with us.

These are exactly the times to rethink education because what is happening right now is showing us that just staying with the normal won’t do! Together with the Art education as Critical Tactics team of ArtEZ we bring you: No School Station, a four part miniseries on education outside of the educational institutions. We have all lost our schools in this moment, our homes for learning. But No School pedagogy sometimes operates outside institutional frames, and sometimes outside buildings. No School can be home-based but it can also be nomadic. What does this mean for learning and creating in times of crisis?

Together with the Art education as Critical Tactics team of ArtEZ we bring you: No School Station, a four part miniseries on education outside of the educational institutions. In this second episode we focus on the theme of magnetism. Magnetism is about attraction, the combination of opposite forces. In the pedagogy of No School this is one of the key elements. Without attraction or to say it differently without binding elements, there is no education.

How do we look to the future in these uncertain times? Can you tell us? We are looking for voices from the future.This project is a collaboration between Radio Artez and artist duo K&A. It started with an artistic project from K&A, called 8102. At the end of 2018, the artists got their hands on dozens of diaries. Diaries that are normally used to organise, capture and control the time, where about to be thrown away. K&A proposed a mirror, a window: 8102. How to imagine a world in more than 6000 years? They invited people from different fields, ages & cultures to fill these agendas during a year. And now, in collaboration with Radio ArtEZ, there’s the satellite program you can join from home: we’re asking everybody to send us voice messages from the year 8102: where will we be, and what will it look like? You can record yourself on your phone and send your message from the future to dennis@denieuwes.com. We will create a kaleidoscopic audio diary as a special episode of Radio ArtEZ. For more

In deze bonusaflevering presenteren we een monoloog uit De zaak Shell, van Rebekka de Wit en Anouk Nuyens. In deze monoloog wordt de rol van de consument in de klimaatafbraak onderzocht. Want zonder dat de consument het wellicht weet, speelt hij al sinds het begin van de rechtszaak een hoofdrol. Shell heeft namelijk al meerdere keren laten weten dat er een fout is gemaakt in deze rechtszaak. Niet zij zouden verantwoordelijk zijn voor klimaatverandering, maar wij: de consumenten.

Bio Orchestra is a collaboration project with Plant Physiologist Sander van der Krol, from the department Plant Physiology of Wageningen University.  Based on the knowledge and methods of Wageningen University, Tom Kortbeek is developing a plant orchestra by translating growth data into sound. This interdisciplinary project tested the applicability of art and science throughout the process. In this podcast we are going to listen to the process development in this Art -Science project. What kind of story do you want to tell as an artist? What are the potentials, and pitfalls of an interdisciplinary project like this? And of course Tom performs the actual plant music made with the Bio Orchestra.
