Future (Re)view : Re-ing and (Re)reading “Future (Re)vision: A Few Reflections on Recollection, Reception and Response in Practice-Based Art Research or: Hindsight isn’t always 20/20”

Abstract

This paper presents re-ing as a critical and creative method for experience-based learning. In this reflective dialogue between an art researcher and an art historian, re-ing is considered vis-à-vis the conference themes of Art of Research VIII (2023): re-placing, re-interpreting and re-visioning. The holistic significance of research in art and design is also explored from the perspective of practice, and the journey from Ph. student to PhD supervisor. The exchange draws on work by the artist featured in The Art of Research II (2012), a legacy publication in The Art of Research series.
