For this first Lab, we invited a small group of artists drawn from different disciplines to think out loud about the issues that currently concern them in their practice. The day was facilitated by Roanne Dods. Our hope was that this experimental artistic enquiry would create a life of its own and a high profile for the value of adventurous research and development. We held our second Art of Enquiry Lab in July 2010.
