About me

Fredric Gunve work as a senior lecturer in Visual Arts at the Art Tand Sloyd teachers program, HDK, Gothenburg University, Sweden. His teaching involves visual arts, conceptual, performance and performative art practices and processes in relation to education and teacher professions. Part of his teaching and arts-based research is to question and blur the borders between teaching and art, and to merge artistic and educational practices. By combining artistic, educational and everyday situations examples of transformative art and education can take form as un-separated expressions and actions. In these entangled forms transdisciplinary experiences for future practices and knowledges can then emerge. The development of art-based education, especially in connection to teaching, questions on ethics, climate and environmental perspectives in art and education are the main focuses in his art, research and teaching. Lately he has focused on art and art-based education in pre-school settings and teachers working with young children. He has taken part in several exhibitions, conferences, written articles, curating and have a long experience of teaching and developing education on all levels within higher art educations and art-teacher educations. In one sentence you can say it all boils down to a (Re)search for a cure against despair
