我做 / 皇冠官网网站所做的 / 你做

May 18 – August 5, 2023

The phrase “I do, we do, you do” refers to a scaffolded and interactive method of teaching art. 用这种方法, students move from being instructed, to working collaboratively, then to working independently. 在 我做 / 皇冠官网网站所做的 / 你做 exhibition, art educators reflect on the intersections of teaching and art making practices. This exhibition includes invited national artists, a collaboration among an art educator research group, a juried selection of Colorado art teachers. Works reflect the challenges particular to teaching art.

我做 features invited artists:

Jorge Lucero
珍·德洛斯·雷耶斯
Harrell Fletcher and Lisa Jarrett of KSMoCA

How does an art educator maintain a contemporary art practice while simultaneously teaching and participating in dialogue about the art education process? Jorge Lucero recorded 102 “permissions” that he has pulled from other artists and creatives as concepts to use in his own art making practice. 他的作品名为 Conceptualist Permissions for Teacher Posture explores the idea that teaching is an art practice and what happens in a classroom is material for creating art. The work of 珍·德洛斯·雷耶斯 supports this concept as the three photographs on display, titled 在蒙德里安, 打击, 图腾, were 创建 in collaboration with her students as a means to address a constant disruption to her teaching practice in the form of cell phones. Harrell Fletcher and Lisa Jarrett founded Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. School Museum of Contemporary Art (KSMoCA) to unite artmaking, 艺术展览, teaching within classrooms. KSMoCA is the merging of a museum of modern art with an elementary school, radically reimagining the way art is taught, 创建, experienced across generations.

皇冠官网网站所做的 features a collaborative artwork by art educators participating in Theory Loves Practice (TLP), an MSU 丹佛 sponsored research group. TLP was 创建 out of a need for community and support for art teachers working in primary, 中间, secondary schools. 最常, art teachers at these levels are the only ones of their kind within a school, facing unique situations and challenges without the support of similarly situated colleagues. TLP provides teachers with a way to share their classroom challenges and successes, learn from each other’s experiences, experiment with new methods. Current TLP participants have collaborated on an installation that examines what is happening in their classrooms right now. The work provides viewers with a snapshot of current issues and a critical analysis of the education system in the hope of creating conversation around the complex situation of education.

你做 celebrates the work of current and retired Colorado art educators (in K-12 and higher education) in a juried selection of work. The jurors for this group of artists are Cecily Cullen, CVA Director & 策展人, 巴勃罗·里维拉, Visual Arts Teacher at 丹佛’s South High School, 和凯蒂·塔夫特, CVA Education Manager. Artists were asked to create work addressing their classroom experiences. The thirty-four artists invited to participate in the exhibition were selected based on the conceptual aspects of their work with a specific focus on works that invite conversation about unique topics.
