This book explores tools and techniques for creating the arts with
groups. It provides insights into why workshops are such an
effective and relevant form of creative practice. Throughout, two
experienced practitioners share successful principles and
qualities. They also include examples of workshops that explore
ways of facilitating creative exploration. The authors believe that
underpinning any good workshop practice is an understanding of what
constitutes a workshop. This is a process in which the relationship
between artist/researcher and participant/audience, maker, and
witness is fluid. It extends each individual’s abilities and
connects doing to learning to inquiring in a single process. The
book itself is a dialogue on, and an investigation into, this
practice. It fully explores the specificities of workshop practice
in relation to how it engages others in arts-based research.
Readers learn how workshops involve inquiry into six areas: inquiry
into subjects, artistic processes, skills, self, the world, and
relationships with others. In the end, this informed investigation
helps practitioners to better reflect on their own approaches to
arts-based inquiry and research. This, in turn, leads to a better
understanding of how readers can use workshops for the maximum
benefit of all participants, both individuals and groups.
