Young children in the art gallery : excursions as induction to a community of practiceFasoli, Lyn, n/a January 2002 (has links)
Learning in 'communities of practice' is a new way of describing and investigating how
people learn and has not been applied extensively in research in early childhood or in art
galleries. This thesis is a critical case study undertaken with preschool children as they
prepared for, participated in and followed up a series of excursions to the National Gallery of Australia. The study explores and analyses children's induction into the
practices of the art gallery and their negotiation of the meanings around these practices in
the gallery and in their preschool. Children's engagement in practices is analysed using a
sociocultural framework for learning called 'communities of practice' (Wenger, 1998) in
combination with a multilevel analysis of the artefacts of practice derived from the
philosophical writings of Wartofsky (1979). Multiple data sources included photographs
of children, their drawings, tape recordings of their incidental talk and group discussions,
and results of play activities as children participated in the practices of the art gallery and
the preschool. Data was also collected through semi-structured interviews with gallery
and preschool staff. In a study involving such young children, the use and juxtaposition
of these multiple sources of data was important because it allowed for the inclusion and
privileging of the material and non-verbal resources as well as verbal resources that
children used as they engaged in practices. Outcomes of this research have been used to
illuminate and problematise early childhood as a site for the intersection of multiple
communities of practice. Learning to make sense of experience is portrayed as more than
language-based 'scaffolding' and the representation of experience through child-centred
play activity. The study provides a detailed descriptive account of children's learning and
sees it as a fundamentally unpredictable and emergent process. It shows that relations of
power are always a part of learning and can be seen through an analysis of the resources
available to children, those they took up and were constrained by in the local situation
and those they brought from other communities of practice. In this process, the children,
as well as their teachers, were active negotiators. They participated in complying with
community-constituted views of knowledge as well as shaping, resisting and contesting
what counted as knowledge. This study makes a contribution to understanding children's
learning in early childhood as fundamentally social, unpredictable, productive and
transformative rather than individually constructed, stable, predetermined and
representational of experience.

The effects of gallery and artist reputation on prices in the primary market for art: a noteSchönfeld, Susanne, Reinstaller, Andreas January 2005 (has links) (PDF)
This paper advances a decision theoretical foundation for pricing scripts by means of a simple model of product differentiation implementing the undercut-proof equilibrium concept. We argue that while sociological factors play undoubtedly an important role, economic analysis can complement the insights from economic sociology on pricing in the primary art market. Our model analyzes the effects of the gallery's and the artist's reputation on the price the gallery charges. The results suggest that prices positively correlate with an artist's reputation and negatively correlate with a gallery's reputation. The model may therefore explain the results of recent empirical studies that have led to similar results. (author's abstract) / Series: Department of Economics Working Paper Series

Pavilhões e o campo ensaístico da arquitetura: o caso da Galeria Serpentine em Londres / Pavilions and the rehearsal field of architecture: the case of Serpentine Gallery in LondonPaola de Oliveira Jaekel 10 May 2017 (has links)
Este trabalho tem como objetivo a análise de uma tipologia - os pavilhões, dentro de um caso singular que são os Pavilhões de Verão da Galeria Serpentine em Londres. Para se entender tanto a tipologia como o próprio programa desenvolvido em Londres, essa pesquisa se valeu de levantamento bibliográfico sobre o tema e sobre os projetos da Serpentine, assim como visita a um dos pavilhões e a obras do arquiteto desse projeto, o chileno Smiljan Radíc. Como ponto de partida foi usado como referência o autor Moisés Puente e o livro \"100 anos de pavilhões de exposição\", e na sequência, publicações sobre história da arquitetura e monografias sobre alguns arquitetos. Sobre a Galeria Serpentine, a pesquisa teve início com a publicação comemorativa aos dez anos do evento: \"Serpentine Gallery Pavilions\", do autor Philip Jodidio, assim como publicações sobre cada pavilhão. Por fim, foram levantadas as publicações monográficas sobre o arquiteto Smiljan Radíc, assim como sobre o pavilhão de 2014. Com isso, foi possível traçar um panorama sobre esses edifícios na história, e também reconhecer algumas das obras emblemáticas para a disciplina da arquitetura, e a partir daí, analisar as propostas que vem sendo desenvolvidas desde o ano 2000 por essa galeria de arte. Dessa forma, o pavilhão visitado em 2014 é apresentado juntamente com a obra do seu autor em uma investigação sobre o campo ensaístico desse arquiteto, campo esse também verificado na análise de alguns dos pavilhões mais significativos da história. / This paper aims to provide analysis of a typology - the pavilions, more specifically the case of the Serpentine Gallery Summer Pavilions in London. In favor of comprehending the typology as well as the developed program in London, this research was based on a selected bibliographical survey on the subject-matter and other Serpentine Gallery projects, additionally to a visit to one of the pavilions and other works by the same architect, the Chilean Smiljan Radíc. It has been used, as starting point, the reference of the author Moisés Puente and his book \"100 anos de pavilhões de exposição\", subsequent to publications on architecture history and monographs by other architects. Regarding the Serpentine Gallery, the research began with the 10-year commemorative publication of the event: \"Serpentine Gallery Pavilions\", from author Philip Jodidio, along with other publications about each pavilion. Lastly, monograph publications were gathered on the architect Smiljan Radíc, as well as on the 2014 pavilion. Therefore, it was possible to draw a panorama on these buildings throughout history, likewise some of its emblematic works for the discipline of architecture, and ther after, analyse the propositions that have been made by this gallery since the 2000s. As a result, the pavilion visited in 2014 is presented along with the author\'s work in an examination of the rehearsal field of the architect, the same field is further analysed in some of the most significant pavilions in history.

Konzumerizmus v kultuře / Consumerism in CultureRozvoralová, Michaela January 2012 (has links)
Master's thesis deals with consumerism in culture. Thesis analyzes cultural institutions and the way they are influenced by consumer society and the requirements of the general public -- the masses. The first part defines the term of culture, consumerism and consumer society. Next part discuss Culture in meaning of Art and permeation of consumerism into the selected domain of culture -- theaters, cultural centers and museums (art galleries). The final part of thesis demonstrates the influence of spectators and visitors to the specific selected representatives of Brno's cultural scene. The survey was conducted through interviews with representatives of Reduta Theater, theater for children Polárka Theater, Cultural Center Semilasso and Wannieck Gallery, currently renamed Richard Adam Gallery.

Uplatnenie umelca na trhu výtvarného umenia v Českej republike / Artist enforecement on the art market in Czech republicHorňáková, Lucia January 2013 (has links)
This diploma thesis considers the theme of the art market in Czech republic. The cooperation between gallerists and artists is not following the professional tradition seen in American and European galleries. Those led the artist to present his artworks exclusively in one and only institution in return for services gallery offer him. The change of attitude in needed in both, galerists' and artists' parts. In my diploma thesis, I am confronting their opinions so I can create a model of their cooperation leading to a professionalization of the relationship.

Feasibility for Use of a Seabed Gallery Intake for the Shuqaiq-II SWRO Facility, Saudi ArabiaMantilla Calderon, David 04 1900 (has links)
Shuqaiq-II IWP is a combined RO water desalination and power plant facility. It operates
with an open intake that feeds the plant with 100,000 m3/h of raw water. The facility is
located 140 km north of Jizan, in a small bay where the run-off discharges of two wadis
converge. The run-off coming from the wadis are rich in alluvial sediments that
dramatically decrease the raw water quality at the intake point, causing periodic
shutdowns of the plant and increasing the operational cost due to membrane replacement.
Subsurface water intakes are an alternative for improving raw water quality, as they
provide natural filtering of the feed water as it flows through the systems. In this type of
system water flow through the sediment matrix is induced and during the percolation,
several physical, chemical and biological processes take place, cleaning the water from
particulate matter, resulting in high quality feed water that can be directly sent to the RO
process without any additional pretreatment.
A full hydrogeological profile of the seabed needs to be performed in order to determine
the applicability of one of these systems in each particular location. In this study, 1 km of
beach area at Shuqaiq-II IWP was surveyed. Ninety-one (91) samples from the shore and offshore sediments were collected and analyzed for hydraulic conductivity, porosity and
grain size distribution.
The laboratory analysis showed that the construction of the seabed galleries was
technically feasible, and the proposed intake system was design to meet the feed water
requirements for the RO facility (530.000 m3/d). The preliminary design consists of 17
cells in total, 16 of which will be in constant operation, and 1 alternate for whenever
maintenance is needed in one of the other cells. The seabed gallery design includes 5
layers of sands with a total depth of 5 m. A detailed underdrain design methodology is
presented. The system would be operated at an infiltration rate of 10 m/d and an average
hydraulic retention time of 7h. Each cell will have an area of 3.500 m2 that will supply
35.000 m3/d of feed water to each RO train.

Transgressing the borders of gallery space : subversive practices of alternative art galleries in East Germany and Poland of the 1970sJarzebska, Aneta January 2018 (has links)
This thesis constitutes the first comparative study of the phenomenon of alternative art galleries functioning during the 1970s in two neighbouring state socialist regimes, namely, the German Democratic Republic and the People's Republic of Poland. Firmly contextualised in the cultural-political climate of Honecker's and Gierek's quasi-liberalisation, it examines the socio-cultural function of non-conformist exhibition spaces and focuses, specifically, on two case studies: Galerie Arkade in East Berlin and Galeria/Repassage in Warsaw. By looking at a wide variety of practices produced in those spaces, this thesis investigates the commonalities and differences in how the galleries operated and how they related to the divergent post-Stalinist conditions. For instance, due to more repressive cultural-politics in the GDR, it proved more difficult to accommodate experimental practices in Arkade, since even exhibiting abstract art was problematic for the East German officials. Conversely, in Poland Gierek's liberalisation resulted in the state's limited acceptance of radical artistic practices such as performance and conceptual art but only in the marginal spaces of artist-run galleries. Despite their alternative status, the galleries were, to a certain degree, dependent administratively and financially on these socialist institutions and were at the same time exposed to surveillance by the state security services. These aspects of galleries' activities are often neglected and so to remedy this lack this thesis offers new perspectives on and insights into various aspects of the functioning of alternative culture in this region. The originality of this research lies also in its references to new archival material which has not been published, nor interpreted before. The interpretation of these rich primary sources makes use of a new theoretical framework that combines Michel Foucault's theory of heterotopia in a macro-level analysis and Henri Lefebvre's ideas on the social production of space in a micro-level analysis. In particular, the galleries' histories are seen in this thesis as intertwined with the advancing process of disintegration of state socialism in the Eastern Bloc as this was perceptible to varying degree in different socialist states. Accordingly, it argues that the galleries were symptomatic of and, simultaneously, contributed through various practices to the 'post-socialist condition'.
