Education | Art Beyond the Classroom

This program will begin with a curator-led tour and lively discussion of Shaun Gladwell: Afghanistan at QUT Art Museum [GP]. Shaun Gladwell's war art focuses on ordinary soldiers in harsh landscapes, on their physique, their inner world, and the training and rituals that shape them.

Students will then travel to the Creative Industries Precinct [KG] to complete the Mash-up LAB. Students will experience the experimental innovation that is the digital mash-up through this hands-on workshop selecting, distorting, animating and activating images to create their own moving image mash-up.

This program will begin with a curator led tour and lively discussion of Foundation's edge: artists and technology at QUT Art Museum [GP] — an exhibition showcasing the work of artists who embrace retro, obsolete and humble technologies to challenge our fixation on the new.

Students will then travel to the Creative Industries Precinct [KG], take in Datascape — an exhibition that explores the way artists use data as their creative medium — and participate in the Data-bytes LAB. This computer-based digital workshop will take students through a hands-on exploration of data visualisation.
