Pedagogy of the Periphery
@ threewalls
119 N Peoria St, 2C, Chicago, IL 60607
Opening Wednesday, February 10th, from 4PM - 7PM
Coordinated by the Open Practice Committee at the University of Chicago, threewalls will host Pedagogy of the Periphery, a special workshop style event to compliment the Radical Caucus for Art’s Autonomizing Practices panel at this year’s College Art Association meeting.
In conjunction with AREA Chicago‘s ninth issue, Peripheral Vision, Pedagogy of the Periphery will focus on the history, practice and theory of radical pedagogy inside and outside institutions. Together, educators and students will discuss pedagogical practices, broadly defined—their optimism, obstacles, methods, pleasures, and frustrations—with both short informal presentations and time for group discussion. Some discussion questions will be submitted in advance by students, however there will be flexibility to address current events as needed (such as, campus uprisings happening in California, Europe, and elsewhere).
This free event allows people not attending the conference to benefit from a sampling of visiting speakers. It is not conceived as anti-CAA, but happens alongside the conference to illustrate the fact that some conversations are easier to hold outside the professional machine.
Presenters include Dara Greenwold, Eve Ewing, Nicole Marroquin, Gregg Sholette, Bert Stabler and Liz Mason-Deese and Tim Stallmann of the Counter-Cartographies Collective.
