Journal of Arts & Communities 14 is out now! Special Issue

Intellect is pleased to announce that Journal of Arts & Communities Volume 14 is out now!

 

Special Issue: ‘Spaces of Reconnection’

 

Over the last year, the disconnections from our creative communities provoked by the COVID-19 pandemic have loomed large on our horizon: how do we set about reconnecting? Articles presented in this volume examine these disconnections and explore the ways artists, designers, curators, photographers, gamers, dancers and others draw upon expanded approaches to creativity, initiating imaginative and resourceful ways to reconnect with their audiences and communities.
