Abstract

The context for the article is a workshop that takes place at Tate Modern in London, with a focus on exploring violence. The material is drawn from two small-scale research projects. The participants, who come from a variety of occupations, observe and deal with violence in their work in varying degrees. The rationale for the art gallery based session is that live visual works of art stimulate engagement in cognitive and emotional processes whilst exploring societal phenomena relevant to professional knowledge and development. There are two main themes: the first focuses on the art gallery visit as a means of learning, and the second is to consider the impact on students and whether learning in an art gallery might give insight into their practice.
