InSEA 2012 European Regional Conference
Lemesos, Cyprus
25-27 June 2012
More than 250 scholars, researchers and educators of the
Arts from 54 different countries covering the 5 continents of the world have
submitted proposals for the InSEA European Conference. Participants are
expected to exceed 500! The theme of the Conference is Arts Education in the
Crossroad of Cultures.
Arts education should be in a constant process of redefining
its scope, goals and processes given our rapidly changing world that is defined
by globalization, the mobility of cultures and information and communication
technologies. This process of redefinition can be achieved through reflective
practice whereby educators, arts specialists, and academics can meet to
discuss, share and exchange ideas.
The purpose of the Conference is to serve as a meeting forum
for people who have these issues at the core of their academic or practical
work. The contributors will use a variety of forms to communicate their ideas -
through presentations, workshops, posters, and panel discussions in addressing
the following themes: Arts and Cultural Identities, Arts and Society, Arts and
Audiences, Learning in and through Arts in the 21st Century and Education
Policy Making and Arts. The Conference will also host a variety of cultural
events.
InSEA (International Society for Education through Art) and
CySEA (Cyprus Society for Education through Arts) in collaboration with the
European Parliament Office in Cyprus and Frederick University, invite scholars
and people interested in Arts Education to attend the conference.
Furthermore, the Conference has been included as one of the
official events within the framework of the Cypriot Presidency of the EU during
the second half of 2012 and participants will have the opportunity to
enjoy Cypriot culture with its characteristic warm hospitality, the delicious
food and the beautiful Mediterranean climate in the coastal city of Lemesos,
the island’s second largest city.
