David LeRue

David LeRue is an Assistant Professor in Art Education at Concordia University. He holds a BFA, MFA, and PhD, and works at the intersection of research-creation, qualitative research, and community-engaged pedagogy. His research examines the contradictions of community through participatory arts-based methods and oral history, exploring how grassroots interpretations shape place experiences.

LeRue's research interests include dialectical philosophies applied to social and physical re-imaginings of community spaces, landscape painting pedagogies, and digital-physical integration in art practices. His work emphasizes inductive methodologies to decode place-based narratives.

LeRue maintains office hours on Fridays from 10:00-12:00 at EV-2-817 and is available for thesis supervision in Art Education (MA and PhD programs).
