Research Project

Discover how the AGSA collection can form the foundations for your proposal for a Research Project topic involving visual arts or design.

To produce a successful Research Project, it's important to select a question that will sustain your interest all year.

If you are passionate about visual arts or design and want to explore a topic with this in mind, visit the Gallery and see how the collection can form the foundation of your proposal.

Some research topics may include:

• If you were a curator how would you structure a rehang of Australian Art?
• Does South Australia need a bigger gallery? Imagine you were the director. How would you envisage the space?
• How does the Gallery depict the history of our continent? Is it a balanced depiction?
• Debate the role of artists in stimulating discussion around the ethical implications of science and technology.
• What are the economic, social and cultural impacts of a festival like Tarnanthi?
• AGSA - a place for creative thinking and questioning.
• How important is a healthy arts scene for South Australia?
• Nurturing confident and creative individuals through visual arts. Case Study: Art Gallery of South Australia
• Today's artists challenge us to ask questions and engage with our world. Use the Gallery's contemporary exhibition program to explore this statement.
• Explore how technology has changed the way artists have made works of art.
