From Viewers to Protagonists: Embodied Practices in Museum Education
When I design an art mediation format I always have on my mind two important questions:
This form of embodiment is the premise of the educational training day. During the workshop, participants will experiment how to experience art through bodily approaches and sensorial engagement.
Through various en-actions in response to artworks, the workshop will free the audience from the condition to be a passive viewer.
The realization of tableaux vivants, shaping body sculptures, and other sensorial explorations are some of the features of the workshop.
During the workshop the participants will experiment in an active way that we can respond to art in an embodied way instead of an intellectual one.
Imagination, emotions, and other physical response can be a possibility to produce a deep knowledge about artworks and a new awareness about ourselves.
- Generally in the museum hall “sight” is the predominant sense. Thus, how can we offer to the visitors a more dynamic sensorial experience?
- How can we blur the boundaries between active and passive spectators?
