Hello all, Forwarding an event next week that may be of interest to you: Open Art Histories: Three Views on Open Educational Resources Friday, February 26, 10:00pm - 11:30pm PST Description: Are you interested in what ArtxHistory.org founder Natalie Coletta describes as "rejecting the dominant language and scholarship that create a climate of elitism and exclusivity" in art history? Are you curious about using open educational resources (OERs) to do so? Join us for an afternoon of talks with three art historians leading the development of open access teaching materials that seek to challenge traditional textbook conventions. Leah Clark will share how Open Arts Objects, an open access platform providing free films inspires diverse audiences to understand art and visual culture while leading change in museum educational programmes and professional practice and increasing public awareness about a global approach to art history. Natalie Coletta founded the ArtxHistory portal as a means to decolonize academia, while serving students and teachers and addressing challenging topics in the areas of artistic practice, history, and critique of 20th and 21st century art. Smarthistory's Dean of Content and Strategy, Lauren Kilroy-Ewbank will speak to how the resource's free, award-winning digital content unlocks the expertise of hundreds of leading scholars making the history of art accessible and engaging to more people around the world.
