Wat is het belang van kunstonderwijs? Wat betekent het om kunst over te dragen, en wat voor specifieke kennis of vaardigheden worden er door middel van kunst  overgedragen? Dit zijn vragen die in een lange filosofische traditie staan, maar zij krijgen opnieuw urgentie door recente politieke en wetenschappelijke debatten over kunstonderwijs. Daarom organiseert het Expertisecentrum Arts in Society van de Rijksuniversiteit Groningen in samenwerking met de Minerva Academie van de Hanzehogeschool Groningen het symposium Theory and Art of Teaching Art and Theory, dat plaats zal vinden op donderdag 16 februari 2012.

Tickle Your Catastrophe! Imagining Catastrophe in Art, Architecture and Philosophy

Whereas at the end of the twentieth century societies had to work through the traumatic  effects of a century of political extremism and found the drive to rebuild society in the  prospect of a better future, it is now, at the beginning of this new century, the fear of an  inevitable and complete catastrophe that reigns. Worst-case scenarios have always played a  role in the way our culture has imagined the future. The impending depletion of the world’s oil  resources, the devastating effects of climate change, steep population growth, the breakdown  of the economic system, pandemics and the threat of international terrorism have made  catastrophe into a crucial notion to understand our relation with our time today. More than  ever before, the expectation of catastrophe shapes our notion and experience of temporality  and influences our ability to act in the present.

CALL FOR PAPERS

Marx and the Aesthetic

(University of Amsterdam, May 10-13th, 2012)

The aim of this conference is twofold: on the one hand, to analyse the role of the aesthetic in the writings of Marx and, on the other, to examine works of art and literature which are based on, or have been directly inspired by, Marx’s writings. At the core of this conference, then, is an attempt to think the immanent relation between the aesthetic and emancipatory conceptions of politics.

Previous attempts to make sense of Marx and Engels in terms of aesthetics have either been Marxist in a very broad sense – writing as productive force, aesthetic autonomy as critique of the commodity form, the critique of aesthetic ideologies etc. – or Marxological in a naïve sense i.e., merely assembling in one volume the stray comments on art and literature that pepper Marx’s and Engels’ writings.
