Learning Changes the Museum

image of Learning Changes the Museum

When someone learns something in a museum, that person changes, but the museum changes too. Instead of asking how do museum artworks provoke learning in their visitors, we are asking, how does the learning of museum visitors provoke changes in the artworks exhibited in the museum? This arts-based educational research project was developed as a collaboration between the Museum ‘Casa de los Tiros’ in Granada and the University of Granada, Spain. 130 university students, four professors and one artists of the city, in dialogue with the museum's director and conservation department, produce a collaborative intervention in the artworks of the museum on the theme ‘Art education and museum.’ Interventions produced by students articulate the notion of transposition and suggest pedagogic potential in how the museum changes in relation to visitors. Student interventions extended the artworks in ways that embodied responsiveness and were integrated with the museum's original pieces.
