Aesthesis//CREATE
Dear All,
Aesthesis is involved in an exciting new project. This project [see below and attached] invites proposals from individuals, groups, societies or organizations from any background to submit an idea, proposal or scheme that employs art/aesthetics to inform or benefit organizational life. Over the next few weeks we will be sending this call to 10,000+ arts-based organizations across the world.
In return, in association with our partners 'Arts and Business', we will provide resources to develop these proposals for inclusion in a global touring gallery - an exhibition of developed proposals which will reach broad-based audiences in over 12 countries and 4 continents.
This project is an exciting opportunity to offer support to new ideas, but it also offers the fantastic prospect of conducting both a longitudinal and comparative ethnographic study with each of the 12-15 projects we select for support. Furthermore, this project will also provide the opportunity to examine each of these projects in the contexts of different cultures and audiences.
In the near future we will put out a call for research partners to join us in the Aesthesis//CREATE project.
However, in the first instance we need your help to get this call out to as many people/ groups/ societies as possible - can you help? As well as yourself there may be other people who you think might be interested. We would be really grateful if you could distribute this announcement as widely as possible. We look forward to receiving good quality submissions from far and wide. For further information and submission details please see www.essex.ac.uk/aesthesis <http://www.essex.ac.uk/aesthesis>
Thanks for your help with this and our very best regards to you all.
The Aesthesis//CREATE team
