- Decolonising narratives - Dr. Stephen KnottCourse start date: Wed 15 May 2024
Location on this date: Keeley Street
Join us us as Dr Stephen Knott, director of the Craft Study Centre, speaks about his doctoral thesis on Amateur craft as a differential practice, carried out under the auspices of the V&A and the Royal College of Art and was supervised by Glenn Adamson (V&A) and Hans Stofer (RCA). This research was the basis for his important and influential book Amateur Craft (Bloomsbury, 2015), and he has also produced a number of other significant research outputs including chapters, papers, co-edited volumes and curation. In 2022 he co-curated the Craft Study Centre’s Presence and Absence, an exhibition that sought to decolonise narratives of studio craft and highlight absences in the Centre’s collections. He is currently in the final stages of completing his new book, Making in Free Time (Bloomsbury).Full fee £0.00 Senior fee £0.00 Concession £0.00 - 50 drawings in a dayCourse start date: Fri 31 May 2024 (and 8 other dates)
