Crossing Boundaries: The Journey from Teacher to Teaching Artist is an exhibition curated by Purnima Ruanglertbutr. Crossing Boundaries displays more than sixty works of art by twenty-seven secondary school Visual Art teachers who have recently graduated from the Master of Teaching (Secondary, Art) program at the University of Melbourne. In addition to a wide range of eclectic artworks across multiple mediums, this catalogue comprises succinct and informative commentaries on the role that art making plays in the graduates’ teaching. These are special insights; Visual Art teachers are educators who carry the expectation that to be good in the classroom, they should have a vibrant private practice – that in order to ‘teach it’, they also have to prove that they can ‘do it’. But through their works of art and artist statements, the participants in this exhibition question their practice and expose themselves to continued examination and critique. The commentaries reveal the graduates exhibit professional identities that amalgamate both the roles of an ‘artist’ and a ‘teacher’ through a re-framing of the teacher of art as an ‘artist teacher’ or a ‘teaching artist’. The foreword by Art Education Australia, Art Education Victoria and the introduction by the curator explores the term ‘teaching artist’ within the context of the exhibition - that ‘teaching artists’ boast a hybrid identity fusing the roles of teacher and artist – an identity that conflates two distinct professions and is successful because the artist teacher brings practitioner skills in both professions.

Connections: Teaching, Art, Life is the third annual Teacher Artmaker Project (TAP) exhibition. The artworks in this exhibition are created by professional artist-teachers who are striving to balance their teaching, art making, and personal lives. Through this research exhibition, 30 early-career teachers explore how these aspects of their daily lives can connect, rather than conflict. This exhibition is important in its own right, in that finding time to make and exhibit art is a challenge to all newly graduated art teachers. This is an important exhibition - it is one part of a larger research project administered by The Melbourne Graduate School of Education. As a consequence, this full-colour catalogue comprises two sections. The first contains reflective statements by the artists, each of whom have articulated how they balance art production and being a teacher, two seemingly disparate worlds. The second contains a research report concerning trends in the Teacher Artmaker Project research data to date. This, then, is a research catalogue that simultaneously celebrates participants’ art making products and their reflections, while placing these into a wider research context relevant to the ‘artist-teacher’ phenomenon.

‘Patana Canvases: Unveiling the Artistic Practices of Our Community’ celebrates creativity and education, documenting the first Teachers as Practitioners Project (TAPs) exhibition at Bangkok Patana School, Thailand. This full-colour catalogue showcases the artistic journeys of thirty-one staff members who participated in the TAPs professional learning programme and highlights how artistic practice enriches both personal and professional growth. This book is part of a wider research project led by Purnima Ruanglertbutr, TAPs project Researcher and Curator. It features reflective statements from the artists, exploring the concepts behind their work and the impact of the TAPs programme, alongside Ruanglertbutr’s research report, ‘The Power of Creative Practice in Education’. This report synthesises survey and artists’ reflection findings to reveal the transformative effects of art-making on the well-being, teaching and working practices, and school culture of educators and professionals in education. The Teachers as Arts Practitioners (TAPs) exhibition reveals how fostering creative practice enhances pedagogy, strengthens community connections, reinvigorates passion-led teaching and work, nurtures artistic confidence, encourages cross-disciplinary connections, and fosters a vibrant community of creative practitioners. Through reflections, case studies, and research insights, this exhibition examines the ‘artist-teacher’ phenomenon and the role of creativity in education, inviting educators, school leaders, artists, and arts advocates to explore the potential of creative practice in shaping individuals, international schools and communities while inspiring a dynamic learning environment. Highlighting the transformative power of creativity, this research exhibition catalogue is a must-read for anyone passionate about the arts in education.
