Abstract:
This paper breaks down my process of transitioning to a new environment through ethnographic documentation. Through the progression of my creative work, I explore the various ways in which I express my own internal feelings through my art. By expressing an alienation within a foreign country in a multitude of filmic ways, these depictions help illustrate my mental and physical journey. My work is informed by psychoanalytic theory and I am most influenced by Jacques Lacan and Sigmund Freud. These theories help me understand the human condition and how I create media art to help me come to terms

Abstract:
This study is concerned with establishing links between education and art participation that can be utilised for teaching cross-cultural art criticism in schools. The thesis asserts that, in addition to the traditional focus of inquiry on the professional art critic (Barrett, 1991; Lee, 1988; Walker, 1992), there are other examples of art participation that can inform educational art criticism. At a time when art educators are maintaining that approaches to art criticism need to take account of the cultural diversity of both students and art, the model of the professional art critic as a g

Abstract:
This doctorate examines the redevelopment of ethnographic collections between 1997 and 2010. The collection and interpretation of ethnographic objects has been the subject of much debate between, anthropologists, museum studies scholars and curators who have sought, on the one hand, to reveal and, on the other, to resist colonial representations in contemporary museums. These debates, as well as the longstanding concern about the purpose of the museum itself, informs this research, which focuses upon the period of the New Labour administration (1997- 2010) and the impact of its cultural divers

The core of this study is the interviews with ten weavers that reside and practice their work in Appalachia.

This thesis is a sociological exploration of emergent social relations at art exhibition venues. It focuses on the experience of art which the dominant “decoding” metaphor fails to describe conceptually and empirically. To grasp the interactional and emergent character of interaction with art, I constructed a framework that defined audiences as sets of emerging social relations. Building on the concepts of experience (Merleau-Ponty), enchantment (Gell), multiplicity and enactment (Latour, Mol and others), I emphasise the situated and embodied nature of art experience.

The movement of people and the fluxes of the world create complex topographies and destabilise the location of our homes.

Based on personal experience, the changing nature of ‘home’ is studied as it is anchored into the self, adopting an approach

Abstract:
This thesis offers a new way to conceptualize Hermann Max Pechstein’s “primitivism” as a kind of ethnographic “primitivism.” By creating a constellation that connects Pechstein’s Nidden and Palau-based projects, Paul Gauguin’s “primitivist” aesthetic, and the research produced by German ethnographers, I argue that the “documentary” nature of Pechstein’s work paradoxically merges the “scientific” aspects of ethnography with his, and more generally, other Expressionists’ interest in the “primitive.” In addition, the following work demonstrates that the purportedly “scientific” representations an

Abstract:
In this thesis I investigate collaborative ethnography through creative arts as a growing global field of practice, based on common influences from anthropology and contemporary art. I seek to understand the nature of this field and to critically examine some of the assumptions that we make as collaborative ethnography/art practitioners about our work as forms of collaboration and social change. Practices of collaborative ethnography through creative arts occur in diverse settings around the world and produce different creative forms such as books, films, photography and theatre. Despite this

Abstract:
Eleven adolescents whose parents were separated or divorced were interviewed regarding their experiences. Emphasis was on their positive and negative experiences and their ways of coping with their problems. The interviews of these high school freshmen were systematically analyzed using Spradley’s ethnographic methodology. The 6 girls and 5 boys lived in maternal, paternal, and joint custody. Two of the adolescents had experienced death of a parent as well as divorce. The adolescents volunteered to participate in this study and were a non-clinical sample. Contrasts were drawn based on sex, ag

En se fondant sur les apports des Sciences de l'éducation et de la sociologie de la culture, de l'éducation, de l'enfance, de l'action publique et de la socialisation, cette thèse cherche à montrer comment se construisent précocement les dispositions des enfants vis-à-vis des « mondes de l'art », pour parler comme Howard Becker, ou autrement dit comment l' « amour de l'art » vient (ou non) aux individus, et ce dès l'enfance. Nous cherchons en particulier à répondre aux questions suivantes : comment peut s'imposer très tôt un arbitraire culturel et des catégories de perception et d'appréciation
