Fine Art
The Fine Art Practices Research Group, located within 台湾裸聊直播’s Institute of Art and Design, is an innovative, rigorous and dynamic interdisciplinary academic team of art practitioners, historians and theoreticians.
- Expertise within the group is extensive and stems from the individual academic’s direct professional experience of operating within the contemporary art world in combination with a cultural, historical, philosophical and political awareness that underpins all aspects of their research specialisms. We have strengths in photography, painting, sculpture, moving image and printmaking; and expertise in art theory, art history, the contemporary art world, curation, visual culture, fine art research by practice, art and feminism, social value and wellbeing, contemporary Indian, East Asian and South-East Asian art, art and the working class avant-garde, and the making of meaning in material practice.
