Felicity Allen is a London-based artist, educator and writer. A founder member of the Women’s Art Library, she has held lecturing positions at Goldsmiths and other leading art schools and was Head of Learning at Tate Britain (2003-2010).

İnci Eviner focuses on identity issues from cultural, historical and political perspectives in her works using various techniques like drawing, photography and video to form a tension between the space and performing bodies. She has been engaged with performative research as a form of expanded education.

Antony Hudek currently works as a curator and the deputy director of the contemporary art exhibition centre Raven Row in London. He’s also the editor of the anthology The Object (Whitechapel: Documents of Contemporary Art) which was published in February 2014.

During the years 1974-1980, when İsmail Saray worked as an arts and crafts teacher at Samsun Education Institute, he was active in rethinking arts education in Turkey.

Saray and fellow artists developed a cooperative project where students also taught what they knew to each other as a way of learning by skill sharing. Two years after moving to London in 1980, he founded the AND Association with his wife and life-long collaborator, Jenni Boswell-Jones, and artist Roderick Coyne.

The magazine AND Journal of Art & Art Education, which they published between 1984 and 1993, attempted to offer a shared alternative platform for both artists and educators.
