CRITICAL JUNCTURES: TENSIONS, EXTENSIONS, AND CONFLUENCES IN
VISUAL ARTS & DESIGN EDUCATION
VADEA is excited to bring you another thoughtprovoking conference of keynote addresses, papers,
panel discussions and cases of best practice in curriculum development in the Visual Arts.
The 2011 VADEA Conference celebrates the expanding horizon of the visual arts and art and design
education in the context of an everchanging globalised world. Interconnectedness, interdependency and the
dilemmas of negotiating the local and the global have emerged as key themes of contemporary art and design.
For art and design educators these developments pose great opportunities and challenges.
Out of the tension, between the need to embrace new interdisciplinary forms, and the need for differentiated
artistic disciplines, new dialogues are emerging. The theme of Tension, Extension and Confluence, adapted
from MOMA New York’s blockbuster drawing exhibition On Line (Nov. 2010 – Feb. 2011), provides a
framework for exploring the significance of new and emerging dialogues that are wellsuited to Visual Arts
educators Ktertiary.
