The research project, Art and Culture as Therapy against Alzheimers, returns to New York
to take part in Practice & Progress:
The MoMA Alzheimer’s Project Exchange, held at the Museum of Modern Art on
April 15-16, 2013. This time our presentation includes the multi-sensorial
project, Murcia Tart with Paco
Torreblanca.
Other presenters on this topic include Lena Nordby of
the Norwegian Museum of Science and Technology in Oslo, Norway; Yoko Hayashi of
Arts Alive in Tokyo, Japan; Dawn Koceja of the Milwaukee Public Museum in
Milwaukee, Wisconsin; Jessica Sack of the Yale University Art Gallery in New
Haven, Connecticut; and a MoMA staff member.
Practice &
Progress: The MoMA Alzheimer’s Project Exchange is an annual
forum organized by MoMA and focuses on generating opportunities to think broadly
and imaginatively about innovation in program content and delivery, and also to
reflect specifically on program logistics, planning, and organization.
The two-day program will consist of panel discussions,
experiential workshops in the Museum's galleries and studios, and smaller
break-out sessions, and will cover such topics as interdisciplinary strategies
for teaching with objects, innovative partnership models, and programmatic
sustainability, among others. The aim is to provide numerous examples of ways
of working with individuals with dementia that spawn meaningful interactions
between individuals, art, ideas, and spaces so that participants can reflect.
