Brokering Intercultural Exchange: Interrogating the Role of Arts and Cultural Management

该网络旨在了解艺术和文化管理者在全球化、国际化和全球移民背景下作为跨文化经纪人的角色。跨文化理解意味着欣赏、认识和联系不同世界观和经验的能力。历史和实证研究认识到艺术和文化对象和表现形式，如美术和表演艺术和遗产，在政治、文化和种族关系中发挥的作用。然而，在这一过程中，人们对艺术和文化管理者的作用以及他们的实践和教育知之甚少。事实上，艺术和文化管理者塑造和组织跨文化交流。他们指导和管理国与国之间的艺术和文化项目，设计、规划和发展艺术和文化节目，以吸引和包容各国日益增长的移民人口作为观众、参与者和创作者。全球、文化、后殖民和跨文化研究表明，促进或阻碍跨文化理解的机制往往基于长期存在的术语、制度结构和特定专业实践和教学方法所坚持的习惯。我们将把这项研究整合并应用于艺术和文化管理的传统、制度和行为，以扩大对艺术和文化管理者在跨文化交流中所起作用的认识，目标有5个：汇集国际、多学科研究人员、艺术和文化管理从业者、政策制定者、教育工作者和学生分享知识，发现关于艺术和文化管理教育和实践中跨文化理解的新研究领域-了解艺术和文化管理从业者，政策制定者，教育工作者和学生如何在国际实践和教育领域内感知和体验跨文化交流-应用新的学科(如种族，历史，后殖民，全球，跨文化，向学生、从业者、教育工作者、政策制定者和研究人员广泛分享研究成果、参考书目、文献，以促进政策影响、进一步研究和建立网络——为艺术和文化管理中的跨文化工作提供新的研究，为100名观众提供免费讲座，互动、集中、40个多学科研讨会（10个核心网络成员，包括研究人员、学生、政策制定者、艺术家、管理人员）将通过4个研讨会举行：框架艺术和文化管理：艺术和文化管理与全球化、国际化和移民的关系（海尔布隆大学，Kunzelsau， 2017年1月）。主导意识形态：审查制度，习惯和专业术语（QUB， 2017年4月）艺术/文化管理高等教育中的跨文化关系，（Macromedia Uni Berlin， 2017年7月）实践中的跨文化关系（自由文字中心，伦敦，2017年11月）研讨会5，“前进：艺术/文化管理中跨文化理解的批判性话语”（QUB， 2018年1月），为核心成员提供审查和反思的机会。咨询委员会的指导和对附属网站和列表服务的公开呼吁将有助于推广。为了确保跨学科的知识交流，研讨会的成果和文献与网络数据库、参与者的反思和参考书目将在网络网站上共享，并通过在附属网络网站上的帖子进行推广。PI和Co-I将为艺术/文化理事会，联合国教科文组织，部长部门（NI/德国/罗马尼亚）撰写关于艺术/文化部门跨文化主义的政策简报-学术期刊文章，学术和部门会议上的论文-网络研究的编辑出版物课程见解将在核心成员学士/硕士课程中进行审查

This network seeks to understand the role of arts and cultural managers as intercultural brokers in our context of globalisation, internationalisation and global migration. Intercultural understanding suggests capacity for appreciating, recognising and relating to different world viewpoints and experiences. Historical and empirical research recognises the role arts and cultural objects and expressions, like fine and performing arts and heritage, play in political, cultural and ethnic relations. Yet, little is known about the role of arts and cultural managers, and their practice and education, in this process.In fact, arts and cultural managers shape and structure intercultural exchange. They direct and administer arts and cultural projects between nations, and devise, plan and develop arts and cultural programming to attract and include growing migrant populations as audiences, participants and creators within nations. Global, cultural, post colonial, and intercultural studies show that mechanisms for fostering or hindering intercultural understanding are often based on long standing terminology, institutional structures, and habits upheld by practices and pedagogies within specific professions.We will integrate and apply this research to the traditions, institutions and actions of arts and cultural management to extend awareness of the part arts and cultural managers play in intercultural exchange with 5 goals:- Gather international, multidisciplinary researchers with arts and cultural management practitioners, policymakers, educators and students to share knowledge and uncover new areas of research about intercultural understanding in arts and cultural management education and practice - Learn how arts and cultural management practitioners, policymakers, educators and students perceive and experience intercultural exchange within international arenas of practice and education - Apply new disciplines (e.g. ethnic, historical, postcolonial, global, intercultural, and cultural studies) to these perspectives to examine dominant terminology, structures and traditions shaping arts and cultural management practice and education- Share findings, bibliography, documentation widely to students, practitioners, educators, policymakers and researchers to foster policy impact, further study and networking- Enable new research examining intercultural work in arts and cultural managementFree talks for an audience of 100 and interactive, focused, multidisciplinary workshops for 40 (10 core network members with researchers, students, policymakers, artists, managers) will occur via 4 seminars: 1. Framing Art and Cultural Management: relationship of management of arts and culture to globalisation, internationalisation, and migration (Heilbronn Uni, Kunzelsau, Jan 2017)2. Dominant Ideologies: Examining Institutions, Habits and Terminology in the Profession (QUB, Apr 2017)3. Intercultural Relations in Arts/Cultural Management Higher Education, (Macromedia Uni Berlin, Jul 2017)4. Intercultural Relations in Practice (Free Word Centre, London, Nov 2017)Seminar 5, Moving Forward: Critical Discourse for Intercultural Understanding in Arts/Cultural Management (QUB, Jan 2018), enables review and reflection for core membersAdvisory Committee guidance and open call on affiliate websites and listservs will assist promotion. To ensure knowledge exchange across disciplines, seminar findings and documentation with network database, participant reflections, and bibliography will be shared on the network website and promoted through posts on affiliate network sites. The PI and Co-I will author- Policy briefing on interculturalism in the arts/cultural sector for Arts/Cultural councils, UNESCO, Ministerial Depts (NI/Germany/Romania)- Academic journal articles, papers in academic and sector conferences - Edited publication of research from the networkCurriculum insights will be examined in core member BA/MA programmes
