The Artground: Where We Let Art Do, What Art Does

Abstract

This chapter gathers critical perspectives about the written chapters in this book (Chapters 1–10) about The Artground (TAG) from three arts education researchers (Neryl Jeanneret, Robert Brown and Jennifer Anderson) at the University of Melbourne. The researchers, who were deeply involved in research and documentation work at ArtPlay in Melbourne, Australia, discuss the interconnected aesthetic, social, cultural, creative and educational dimensions of TAG in terms of (a) philosophy, (b) place, and (c) practice.
