Valuing Landscape and Environment: Arts and Humanities Perspectives

这项研究建议通过在方案本身任期内无法实现的目标来巩固和加强景观和环境方案的影响。现在有一个令人信服的理由支持三项主要产出，即一本书、业绩工作和重新开通的网站，因为现在显然，方案的价值在最后一年呈指数级增长，特别是一些具有很高公共价值的大型项目。这种奖学金不会延长方案，而是会改变方案。这项研究将确定和推进解决和促进文化价值这一广泛问题的方案结论，并通过公众参与的形式促进公共价值这一特定主题。在景观和环境方面，相关领域包括设计、保护、政策和管理、公共艺术品和展览、地方归属、研究生教学、专业培训和终身学习。该研究金将进一步发展其最初规定的两个领域--“创意网站”和“公众关注的领域”，并与项目奖项的主要领域“学术研究领域”建立新的联系。该研究金将探索最有效的方法，将景观和环境问题的理论和实践联系起来，将文本中的解释与实地实施结合起来，将学术与现场管理和公众理解结合起来。委员会亦会考虑以景观及环境为例，作为与公众价值和参与有关的艺术和人文研究的典范领域。研究金人员将组成一个三人小组，由计划总监和计划协调人组成，另加一名全职研究助理，并具备所需的定性方法专业知识。第一期研究金将集中在投入方面。它将收集、整理和分析信息和材料。为此，将审查与获奖者面谈的计划活动，并在现场与获奖者和利益攸关方组织专题讲习班，包括国家信托基金、英国遗产和泰特基金会的计划合作伙伴。将通过与12个网络的联络来捕捉环境变化这一紧急主题，该方案与AHRC有关，将持续到2011年年中。还将对计划外的相关文献进行更广泛的审查，并与关注景观和环境的公共价值的国际组织建立联系，特别是那些在计划期间与之建立了联系的组织。在研究金的第一期期间，一个重新开发的方案网站将记录和展示研究金活动的进展情况，包括张贴工作文件、个案研究和与项目有关的其他专题问题。研究金的第二期将侧重于产出。第一个将是以景观和地方特性为主题的委托表演作品，可适应不同的地点和场所，以可在现场访问的格式现场表演和录制。这项工作将是伦敦奖学金发现展示活动的一部分。研究金的主要成果是一本书，由国际和平协会与奖项获得者和合作伙伴合作编写。这将是专业的设计，以便于广泛的读者。整个奖学金的写作将对这本书做出贡献，包括为艺术、设计和保护领域的务实组织撰写的工作论文和出版物。在第二个时期，该网站将继续记录和展示材料，包括两份通讯中的第二份，并作为研究金研究结果的档案，这一结果将在奖项结束日期后继续存在。

The research proposes to consolidate and enhance the impact of the Landscape and Environment programme through objectives that could not have been achieved during the term of the programme itself. There is now a compelling case for the three main outputs, a book, performance work and relaunched website, as it is now evident that the value of the programme has increased exponentially in its final year, notably with some large projects with high public value. This fellowship will not extend the programme, it will transform it. The research will identify and take forward programme findings which address and promote the broad issue of cultural value and promote the particular theme of public value through forms of public engagement. For landscape and environment the relevant fields are those of design, conservation, policy and management, public artwork and exhibition, local belonging, postgraduate teaching, professional training and lifelong learning. The fellowship will further develop two areas of its original specification, 'sites of creativity' and 'arenas of public concern' and establish new connections to the main area of project awards 'fields of scholarly enquiry'. The fellowship will explore the most effective ways to connect theory and practice in landscape and environment matters, to integrate interpretation in texts with implementation on the ground, academic scholarship with site management and public understanding. It will also consider the the example of landscape and environment as a model field for arts and humanities research concerned with public value and engagement.The fellowship staff will comprise a team of three, the established partnership of programme director and programme co-ordinator with additionally a full time Research Associate, with the requisite expertise in qualitative methods.The first period of the fellowship will focus on inputs. It will collect, collate and analyse information and material. This will be done by reviewing programme activity interviewing award holders and organizing themed, on site, workshops with award holders and stakeholders, including programme partners from the National Trust, English Heritage and Tate. The emergent theme of environmental change will be captured by liaising with the 12 networks under a programme related AHRC which continue until mid 2011. A wider review of relevant literature from outside the programme will also be undertaken, and linkages developed with international organizations concerned with the public value of landscape and environment, particularly those with whom liaison's have been established during the programme. During this first period of the fellowship a redeveloped programme website will document and display the progress of fellowship activity, including posting working papers, case studies and other topical issues relevant to the project. The second period of the fellowship will focus on outputs. The first will be a commissioned, performance work on the theme of landscape and local identity, adaptable to different sites and venues, performed live and recorded in formats which can be accessed in situ. This work will be part of a showcase event for the fellowship findings in London. The main output of the fellowship is a book, authored by the PI in collaboration with award holders and partners. This will be professionally designed to be accessible to a wide ranging readership. Writings throughout the fellowship will contribute to this book, including working papers and publications for practically minded organizations in the art, design and conservation sector. In this second period the website will continue to document and display material, including the second of two Newsletters, and act as an archive for the fellowship findings, an outcome which will be sustained after the end date of the award.
