Social Sculpture and New Organs of Perception: New practices and new pedagogy for a humane and ecologically viable future"

This chapter: 'Social Sculpture and New Organs of Perception. New practices and new pedagogy for a humane and ecologically viable future' is part of the book Beuysian Legacies in Ireland and Beyond, Lit Verlag (2011) edited by Christa-Maria Lerm Hayes and Victoria Walters. ISBN: 9783825807610

It details questions and reflections on Beuys’ social sculpture ideas and the enquiry that was linked to setting up the Social Sculpture Research Unit at Oxford Brookes University. It also outlines some of the pedagogic practices I developed there from 1997 onwards.
