520 $a This dissertation uses a practice-based methodology to question the meanings and impacts of this relatively new academic discipline, examining and contextualizing art making and academic research as distinct fields with different values and objectives.
520 $a Employing the deconstructive play of binaries I propose the position that leisure is work for the practicing artist. This situates my art practice as one that aggravates boundaries between expert/amateur, work/hobby, and leisure/productivity. This maneuver of inversion presents a way of working within, around, and against problems entailed by introducing doctoral level programs in visual arts.
520 $a Pierre Bourdieu's concept of struggles for agency provides a framework to investigate the fields of cultural and knowledge production. His argument that autonomy within fields depends on the ability to refract external determinants is presented alongside persistent modernist notions of creative autonomy despite these being subject to assimilation by dominant capitalist forces.
520 $a Analyzing the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council definition of research/creation I identify how artists' autonomy is framed, and weakened by ideals of legitimate forms of knowledge and its communication. I further identify ways that the autonomy of independent inquiry at universities, more generally, is threatened by pressures to instrumentalize knowledge into economic advantage. My association of the pressure to transform art making into useful products within capitalism is the locus of my inquiry into the disciplining of art practice within the contemporary university.
520 $a Engaging in a conversation between competing values I identify a sense of futility about ways artists can contribute to academic knowledge. Artistic practices and works are too easily compromised by dominant definitions of academic research. Faced with this dilemma we confront the choice to either not participate, which raises questions about the role of artists in universities, or else get a feel for the game, where such agency acquisition is seen as either a mode of refraction in a bid to maintain a sense of autonomy, or a subject-making self-disciplining practice.
520 $a This dissertation proposes that, in light of the sense of futility engendered by subject-forming and disciplining practices of contemporary Western culture, what remains is the imagination of a better, more egalitarian world.
