Connecting People to Art, Art to People
We are delighted to launch a new piece of research by Mariangela Dalfovo * on CORNERS Live. Looking specifically at CORNERS of Europe in Blyth, Connecting People to Art, Art to People explores the process of delivering a complex European project at a local level.
Mariangela asked what is the value of engaging people in the arts? How can cultural producers make art accessible and meaningful to people? What is the role of arts producers as interlocutors between artists and participants? How can we nurture and expand engagement beyond the life of the project?
The research took place between November 2016 and March 2017 and involved interviews with cultural producers, artists, partners and audience groups and was presented at Audience Links Xchange conference in Stockholm in February and again at ISIS Arts in March.
Corners will continue this September in East Durham with East Durham Creates and community partners.
