IMAG #20: Collaboration and Connection

For this, the 20th issue of IMAG, the principal editors chose to focus on Collaboration and Connection. We chose this for three reasons. The first recognizes that as artists and educators, we often collaborate to create curriculum and co-facilitate learning environments. Much of what happens in an art room, community, studios, museums, and digital interaction involves collective problem posing and solving as well as exploring ways to forge understanding across and within cultures, mediums, and paradigms.

IMAG #19: Crossroads

Art educators live and thrive in and on the Crossroads.

We continually find ourselves within planned and unplanned circumstances that lead from one place, style, pedagogy, medium, and/or interaction with another. Whether for ourselves or with our work with others, crossroads at times can be intentional, shaking up our routines, and at other times a surprise, a serendipitous event that can lead to a new direction.

The following visual essays offer a wide perspective on how crossroads have influenced the authors’ practices. In each case, there has been movement from one starting point to another that invariably leads to keen insight.
