Description

Art as Research Opportunities and Challenges by Shaun McNiff explores the practice of art-based research, which uses art making as a primary mode of enquiry. This approach draws on various disciplines, including arts therapies, education, history, organizational studies, and philosophy, to critically examine the challenges of artistic inquiry. The book examines how artistic discoveries can emerge spontaneously, how truth can be examined through both fact and fiction, and how to generate artistic evidence and communicate outcomes. Examples from all the arts are featured in this volume, making it a valuable resource for researchers and students across multiple fields. By considering the unique aspects of artistic research, McNiff offers insights into the complexities of partnership between art and social science, and how to navigate these challenges effectively.
