General Information
About colourschool
colourschool is a school within a school dedicated to the speculative research and exploration of five colours: black, white, brown, yellow, and red. Providing a free and open space for critical investigations of colour, identity, artmaking, and knowledge production, colourschool attempts to develop a collaborative colour consciousness through a variety of events including reading groups, film screenings, listening labs, interviews, roundtable discussions, brown bag lunches, performances, and installations among other activities.
Inspired by the history of experimental education, colourschool draws from the pedagogical precedents of Black Mountain College and Joseph Beuys’ Free International University as well as the Colour Research project undertaken by Michael Morris and Vincent Trasov.
colourschool sessions will take place over the course of one academic year between November 2007 and August 2008 at the Intersections Digital Studios [IDS], Emily Carr Institute of Art + Design.
