Abstract

The Public Art School (Now) Roundtable, convened by Dr Ruth Fazakerley (University of South Australia) and Ms Fiona Hillary (RMIT University), canvassed the question, What’s happening now in higher education institutions to prepare students to work in and with public, community and social contexts? Fourteen examples of contemporary art projects, student activity and curriculum were received from educators in Australia, the Philippines and India. These examples represent diverse institutional and personal approaches to public realm practice; to collaboration and co-creation involving educators, students and publics; to the contribution of artists and designers to knowledge and society; and the role of creative research and scholarship in the public realm.This Discussion Paper collates these responses to provide a durable resource for educators as well as to inform discussion at the Public Art School (Now) Roundtable, held at ACUADS 2015 with the participation of leading educators from art and design schools around Australia.
