SHARE

About

SHARE stands for Step-change for Higher Arts Research and Education and was an international networking project, comprising 39 partners working together on enhancing the ‘3rd cycle’ of arts research and education. It created a Europe-wide exchange framework for the widely different experiences, practices and ideas that make up the lively domain of artistic and cultural research.

SHARE worked across a wide spectrum of creative cultural practices including visual and performing arts, music, design and media.

ELIA and GradCAM Dublin jointly coordinated it and the European Commission selected the project for structural funding over the period of 2010-2013. SHARE was co-funded by the EU through the Education, Audiovisual and Culture Executive Agency through the ERASMUS Lifelong Learning Programme.

SHARE consisted of three networks working independently:

  • A network of existing graduate schools developed innovative, cross-disciplinary approaches and programmes, building upon the current European Artistic Research Network.
  • A newly formed network for developing 3rd cycle education, provided information, support and a collaboration base for programmes in the start-up phase.
  • A network of researchers and supervisors, continued expanding the EUFRAD forum for research degrees in arts and design.

Further working groups were concerned with the validation, advocacy, and dissemination of artistic research; conferences took place in Copenhagen, London, Brussels and Aarhus.

All working groups and networks contributed to the final book publication in 2013, which you can read here.

THE SHARE HANDBOOK FOR ARTISTIC RESEARCH EDUCATION

The SHARE Handbook for Artistic Research Education is the outcome of three years of hard and rewarding work by SHARE.

The SHARE Handbook for Artistic Research Education is a poly-vocal document, designed as a contribution to the field of artistic research education from an organisational, procedural and practical standpoint. As a provisional disclosure of the state of the art within specific constituencies, this publication seeks to be serviceable to many different agendas and projects, and it attempts to do this by demonstrating the lived contradictions of what is simultaneously both an emerging and fully formed domain of research education.

Edited by Mick Wilson and Schelte van Ruiten the Handbook features contributions from:
Henk Borgdorff, Anna Daucaíková, Scott deLahunta, ELIA, James Elkins, Bojan Gorenec, Johan A Haarberg, Efva Lilja, Steven Henry Madoff, Leandro Madrazo, Nina Malterud, Ruth Mateus-Berr Alen Ozbolt, John Rajchman, Matthias Tarasiewicz, Andris Teikmanis Johan Verbeke
