This workshop aims to bring together teachers, artists and academic scholars (from and around FAU Erlangen-Nuremberg and the University of Ibadan, Nigeria) to discuss the status of theatre or performative arts education in schools and it’s impact on sustaining cultural heritage in times of transformation from a global perspective. The inspiration is the impression that, by policy and practice, arts and cultural education seems to be relegated among other subjects in secondary school, especially in Nigeria not minding its roles in sustaining cultural heritage.
After a short impulse on the topic of Cultural Sustainability res. Cultural Resilience by Benjamin Jörissen, Ifeoluwa Akinsola, as the main speaker, will be talking about his PhD research on how Nigerian teachers have been using theatre/arts to sustain Yoruban Culture. So, the workshop is to lend a voice to the potentialities of theatre/arts education in helping us form, reform and transform identities, cultural heritage and moral values and contribute to the recommendations of the on-going discourse on decoloniality in Nigeria and elsewhere.
International Conference hosted by the UNESCO Chair in Arts and Culture in Education in cooperation with the „Exploring Visual Cultures” Project at the Academy of Fine Arts Munich. Friedrich-Alexander-Universität Erlangen-Nürnberg, Akademie für Schultheater und performative Bildung.
JOINT CONFERENCE:
11. TAGUNG DES NETZWERKS FORSCHUNG KULTURELLE BILDUNG UND FRÜHJAHRSTAGUNG DER SEKTION MEDIENPÄDAGOGIK DER DEUTSCHEN GESELLSCHAFT FÜR ERZIEHUNGSWISSENSCHAFT, VERANSTALTET VON
DIGITALISIERUNG IN DER KULTURELLEN BILDUNG – EIN METAPROJEKT (TP 1) DES LEHRSTUHLS FÜR PÄDAGOGIK MIT DEM SCHWERPUNKT KULTUR UND ÄSTHETISCHE BILDUNG AN DER FRIEDRICH-ALEXANDER-UNIVERSITÄT ERLANGEN-NÜRNBERG
Digitalisierung verändert Selbstverhältnisse, Gemeinschaftsformen und Demokratieverständnisse. Die gegenwärtige post-digitale Kultur und ihre ästhetischen Erfahrungsräume können ohne Kenntnis digitaler Medialität und digitaler Designs – verstanden als machtgeladene ästhetische Prozesse (Mareis 2016, von Borries 2016) – nicht mehr verstanden werden. Umgekehrt ist die Ausbreitung digitaler Medialität in der ästhetisierten Gesellschaft (Reckwitz 2012, Böhme 2016) nur mehr unter Bezug auf ästhetisch-kulturelle Praxen entschlüsselbar. Ästhetische, kulturelle und mediale Wissensfelder sind daher für pädagogische Handlungsfähigkeit wie auch für eine zukunftsgerichtete Entwicklung der Forschung zur kulturellen Bildung und Medienpädagogik unumgänglich.
Die gemeinsame Tagung des Netzwerks Forschung Kulturelle Bildung, der DGfE-Sektion Medienpädagogik und des Forschungsprojektes DiKuBi-Meta (TP 1; BMBF 2018-2022) möchte Forschende zur ästhetisch-kulturellen Bildung und Forschende im Feld der Medienpädagogik zusammenbringen, gegenseitig Einsichten erkunden, Kooperationsmöglichkeiten sondieren und gemeinsam neue Perspektiven für Forschung und Praxis diskutieren.
Erziehungsprozesse bringen Haltungen hervor, tradieren und transformieren sie. Klassische pädagogische Settings, die von interaktiven, hierarchisch organisierten Vermittlungsprozessen ausgehen, kennzeichnet der Bezug auf Haltungen und ihre Genese in und durch Lern- und Bildungsprozesse ebenso wie Praktiken der peer-culture und (jugend-)kulturelle Szenen bzw. politische Bewegungen. Die post-digitale Kulturforschung wiederum zeigt, dass (User-)Haltungen und somit Subjektkonfigurationen durch Software sowie Interfaces präformiert werden. Das Feld des pädagogischen Interaktionsgeschehens lässt sich demnach immer auch durch die Haltungen und (wertenden) Einstellungen beschreiben, die ihnen inhärent sind und/oder durch sie implizit und explizit vermittelt werden. Haltungen werden dabei sowohl auf Seiten der Adressat*innen des pädagogischen Handelns als auch auf Seiten der pädagogischen Akteure in ihrem „pädagogischen Takt“ (Herbart), sowohl in ihren Intentionen wie auch als nichtintendierte Folgen ihres Handelns wirksam. Programmtische Fluchtpunkte von erziehungswissenschaftlicher Forschung, pädagogischen Prozessen, handlungsleitenden Orientierungen und Legitimationsmustern pädagogischen Handelns sind zudem eng an gesellschaftliche Diskurse und Wandlungsprozesse geknüpft. Diese sind maßgeblich geprägt von und durch Haltungen, die sich normativ auf verschiedene Leitbilder beziehen, damit zugleich lebensweltliche und institutionelle Interaktionsmodi widerspiegeln sowie (re-)strukturieren. So stellt sich aktuell gerade noch einmal neu und anders die Frage, wie das pädagogische Handeln und die Disziplin der Erziehungswissenschaft in manifeste anti-pluralistische Tendenzen (Andresen/Oelkers 2018, Heitmeyer 2018) und globale Transformationsdynamiken verstrickt sind (Koller 2018) und wie sie an der Vermittlung bzw. Stärkung (anti-)demokratischer Haltungen mitwirken (können). Die Jahrestagung der Kommission Qualitative Bildungs- und Biographieforschung widmet sich insofern Fragen von Haltungen, die sich gegenstandsbezogen, methodologisch und methodisch diskutieren lassen.

Vortrag Benjamin Jörissen: Kulturelle Bildung in einer transkulturellen Welt. Tradierung und Werteaushandlung im “third space” ästhetischer Vermittlungspraxis.
Die Auswirkungen und Konsequenzen der Einflussnahme der Digitalisierung auf die Kulturelle Bildung sind bislang weitestgehend unerforscht. Um diesem Desiderat zu begegnen, fördert das Bundesministerium für Bildung und Forschung über einen Zeitraum von vier Jahren interdisziplinäre Forschungsvorhaben zur Digitalisierung in der Kulturellen Bildung. 13 Projekte werden von 24 Hochschulen und Forschungseinrichtungen an 22 Standorten in ganz Deutschland durchgeführt.
Das Projekt DiKuBi-Meta dient als Metavorhaben der Selbstreflektion der Forschungscommunity zur Kulturellen Bildung. Es führt die Themenbereiche der Förderrichtlinie auf der Grundlage eigener international angelegter, empirisch fundierter Expertisen und Forschungssynthesen zusammen und ordnet sie in ihrer gesellschaftlichen sowie bildungswissenschaftlichen Bedeutung ein. Dabei schließt es Ergebnisse aus laufenden Vorhaben ein. Es fördert die Vernetzung der geförderten Vorhaben untereinander sowie mit thematisch verwandten Projekten im In- und Ausland.
Das erste Vernetzungstreffen des Förderschwerpunkts fand vom 28. bis 30. Juni 2018 in der Akademie für Schultheater und performative Bildung sowie in weiteren Räumlichkeiten der Kulturwerkstatt Auf AEG statt.
Culture only persists through lived practice. It exists within iterative practices which pass on – and by doing so, inevitably reinterpret and recontextualize – cultural forms, semantics, and values. Arts, taken as a particular realm of aesthetic expression by culturally situated means, are thus important agents, shaping the tensional relation between tradition and heritage on the one hand and the multiple challenges of cultural transformation on the other: Through the discoursive practices of arts, cultures aesthetically reflect and become critically aware of themselves. Through the participation in aesthetic discourses and practices, people thus may participate in such deliberative aesthetic transformative practices. This is where arts education, cultural education and aesthetic education intersect.
In an ever changing world
- facing huge, and more often than not hegemonial, transformative forces such as globalization, digitalization, mediatization, economization and displacement/migration,
- experiencing overwhelming, disruptive complexities as well as regressive reactions against those on a global scale,
- while at the same time being challenged with the need for change towards sustainable models and modes of living,
the necessity of change and learning processes on not only political, but more so on the level of inherited cultural practices, is evident. Accordingly, cultural sustainability can no longer be regarded as a process of fixation and determination of cultural norms and ways of living (against change), but has to be understood as an idea of generating cultural tradition by shaping the transformative moments of culture in a selfdetermined manner.
This perspective – understanding arts as a agent for non/anti-hegemonial practices of transformation, and arts, cultural and aesthetic education as an agent for the empowerment towards participation in such processes – may thus foster and sharpen our understanding of the potential role of arts education (and arts education research) for sustainable development. The resulting question: „How may and does arts education contribute to cultural sustainability?“ differs vastly from sub-complex, utilitarian and functionalistic questions of how arts (education) may serve the purposes of pre defined sustainability goals. It aims towards the multiple aesthetics of transformation in arts (and likewise in less institutionalized forms of aesthetic practice), the inherent connexion of education and transformation, and finally the intersection of both.

In diesem Vortrag geht es um die kritische Auseinandersetzung mit aktuellen Diskursen zum Posthumanismus sowie zu nicht-anthropologischen Medien- und Kulturtheorien. In diesem Kontext werden Möglichkeiten aufgezeigt, wie diese Theorieansätze und Diskurse im fiktiven Lab affirmativ aufgenommen und in künstlerisch-performativen Projekten umgesetzt werden können.

Gut zu wissen:
Der Gastvortrag ist eingebettet in ein Seminarangebot des MA-Studiengangs Pädagogik (Profilschwerpunkt Kulturpädagogik) :
Posthuman Chances Lab. Eine diskurskritische Installations-Performance
Im Blockseminar werden wir ein fiktives „Posthuman Chances Lab“ erarbeiten und präsentieren. Grundlage dies zu tun, ist eine kritische Auseinandersetzung mit aktuellen Diskursen zum Posthumanismus (z.B.: Karen Barad, Donna Haraway, Rosi Braidotti, Brian Massumi/Erin Manning) sowie zu nicht-anthropologischen Medien- und Kulturtheorien (z. B. Bruno Latour, Mark B. Hansen, Erich Hörl, Yuk Hui, Christiane Voß, Benjamin Bratton). Diese Theorien sind hoch geschätzt, da sie auch als eine Möglichkeit gesehen werden, menschlichen Agierenden im Angesicht des Anthropozäns eine Art techno-umweltlicher Demut nahezulegen; eine Voraussetzung um die Erde noch zu retten. Zugleich stehen die genannten Theorie und die in ihnen unternommene Verabschiedung des „Menschen“ im Kontext einer techno-logischen Bedingung, in der menschliche Agierende zum Datengeber in selbst organisierten Infrastrukturen (Wendy Chun) und einer algorithmischen Gouvernementalität (Antoinette Rouvroy) werden. Es soll der Frage nachgegangen werden, wie mit dieser Ambivalenz und Gleichzeitigkeit umgegangen werden kann. Dazu werden die posthumanen Theorieansätze und Diskurse im fiktiven Lab affirmativ aufgenommen und in Projekten der Studierenden (fiktive Seminare, Trainingsapparate, Medien, Kleidung, Essen, bio-technologische Experimente etc. für posthumanes Bewusstsein und Verhalten) konkret umgesetzt. In der Affirmation sollen zugleich die kritischen Aspekte markiert und erlebbar gemacht sowie die produktiven, gegebenenfalls gesellschaftsverändernden Potenziale ausgelotet werden.
Die Präsentation der studentischen Projekte findet voraussichtlich am Sonntag, den 2. Juli 2017 in der Kulturwerkstatt Auf AEG (AkademieLAB) statt. Bei schönem Wetter wird die Präsentation ins Freie verlegt!

Like every pedagogical field, the fields of aesthetic, arts and cultural education (AACE) have been confronted with various transformational dynamics in recent decades. These transformations concern all aspects of AACE: the conditions of pedagogical work, the conditions of aesthetic and artistic topics and genres related to it, as well as the conditions of learners in the progressively globalized, internationalized and transculturalized world under the conditions of economization, governementalization, demographical shifts, migration, mediatization and digitalization.
Though research on AACE rarely focuses on transformational dynamics empirically in a systematic way, the very impact of field transformations on the constituting concepts of the discourse of AACE are even less researched and reflected upon – in particular with regard to the questions of
- how this research field is constructed,
- how the topical constructs used in research relate to each other,
- what normative, cultural and political presuppositions are implied, and thus
- what strategies of inclusion and exclusion of cultural practices as research objects are applied explicitly or implicitly, the latter being of utmost importance for the current processes of internationalization of the research discourses on AACE.
Well-established and traditional theoretical concepts, while remaining unchanged on their surface, experience huge shifts underneath their surfaces. The very concept of art for example experienced notable transformations with the shifts brought about by mass production (Duchamps), mass media (Warhol), economization (Koons), feminist (Abramovic) and political (Ai Wei Wei) discourses, and digital changes (“postinternet art”). Likewise, post-nationalism, postmigration and postcolonialism revealed a multitude of concurring concepts on education, and in that regard, the deep cultural-historical embeddedness of allegedly abstract and neutral conceptions of learning, education and, not least, the implications involved for identity and personality development. The concept of aesthetics has been even more pluralized, if not fragmentized between e.g. their ideology-critical deconstructions, the shifts toward media theory and more materialistic approaches (Barad), the deconstructions of the “western” model of subjectivity (Spivak) and the digital/algorithmic de- and rematerializations of aesthetic objects as well as processes of aesthetic experience (Parisi).
As the transformational dynamics in the various fields are interconnected in multiple ways, complexity even increases. With regard to current and future research in the fields of AACE, it is crucial not only to gain systematic insights in the effects of those transformations on the fields of practice; beforehand, there has to exist an awareness of and sensitivity towards the dynamics, but even more so towards the resulting shifts of the core concepts on which research is based upon.
In order to cultivate and prepare this sensitivity, the planned international winter school lays the grounds for a systematic consideration of the conceptual dynamics in the current and future research on AACE. We think that this is an instrument of utmost importance for young researchers, and thus a crucial instrument for the development of relevance and quality in the future research in these fields.
In the context of our proposed winter school, we would like to discuss these transformational processes together with experts and young scholars on the basis of six main thematic areas and to determine their influence on the construction of the field of research in arts and cultural education. The winter school’s aims in regard to the young scholars involved are for them to gain a critical distance to their research object and to discuss methodological implications and innovations, but also to jointly develop theory. Young scholars from abroad may apply with their own projects, which will be presented and discussed within the duration of the winter school. Passive attendance (without a project presentation) is also possible.
The Winter School will be organized by the Chair of Pedagogy with a focus on Culture and Aesthetic Education at the Friedrich-Alexander-University Erlangen-Nuremberg with the collaboration of the UNESCO Chair for Cultural Education, the European Network of Observatories in the Field of Arts and Cultural Education linked to UNESCO (ENO), the Academy for School Theatre and performative Education and the Netzwerk Forschung Kulturelle Bildung.

Spectra and Dynamics of Social and Cultural Transformation (Prof. Dr. Hannelore Bublitz, Paderborn)
Based on the assumption that culture and social reality are in no way governed by conscious planning or regulation, this presentation proceeds from the assumption that (modern) culture is constituted by unconscious schemata of perception, thought, and action as well as autopoietic processes and distributed action – automatisms.
Analyses of contemporary, (post)modern societies make clear that post-disciplinary technologies of the self – of competitive singularities – cannot be extrapolated from the perspective of disciplinary technologies of control, but are based on forms of governmental (self-)guidance that shift feedback-driven circuits of control into the subject and are directed towards constantly actualized profiles. These are oriented toward affecting observers and toward connecting themselves through triggers again and again to new stimuli and experiences and to already existing or newly created emotions, which causes habitual patterns and structures to dissolve or change, respectively. The “transformation of orders of visibility” (Reckwitz) contrasts a disciplinarily schematized and standardized subject with a subject that links visibility and permanent observation to economies of attention. Paradoxically, the work on the singularity and its creative expression constitutes a social subject that iteratively gains self-assurance through schematized profiles, and performatively produces, adjusts, and socializes itself through circular processes. With respect to dynamics of transformation, various economies and technologies (of commodities, signs and symbols, and of the psychic apparatus) become intertwined in the realm of the social as well as within the subject itself – and this means: within educational processes. At the same time it becomes clear that the sovereign, autonomous subject in a sense ‘disintegrates’ itself through these transformations; it appears as the black box of circular proceedings that are governed by unregulated processes of distributed action and social exchange.
1. Migration, Postmigrant Society, Post- and De-Colonialism (Ass.-Prof. Dr. Marc Hill, substitute for: Prof. Dr. Erol Yıldız, Innsbruck)
Both a postmigrant as well as a postcolonial perspective pose diverse questions for the field and the object of AACE. On the one hand, differences and fault lines can be established along the two dimensions of 1) the comprehension and understanding of aesthetic practices and the arts and 2) the presupposed and implicit notions of the subject (from individualistic conceptualizations of higher education to socioculturally oriented community building as a fundamental concept of AACE) (cf. for instance Bresler 2007), which under the conditions of inter- and postnational perspectives seriously reframe the question of the topical construct as a question of the capacity for diversity and integration on a conceptual level. This is further expedited by the fact that the objectives of AACE are differently weighted internationally – ranging from an orientation toward heritage and identity to a concentration on the requirements of the creative industries (Liebau 2013). The question of (cultural) topical constructs involved here is of the utmost importance in the current situation, e.g. for the work with refugees. What is the significance of cultural education with regard to the challenges of postmigrant society? How are the objects of cultural education and its research generated against the backdrop of hybrid identities? What importance must be ascribed to the question of whether the subaltern can speak, and with what conceptual consequences?
2. Demographies (Prof. Dr. Eckart Liebau, Erlangen)
Demographic developments bring new generational target perspectives into focus. In Germany, for example, the traditionally rather youth-oriented AACE must in the future increasingly develop models for the cultural-geragogical field due to the changing age pyramid. In the fourth stage of life, different and to some extent new educational goals come to the fore, whose conceptual fundamental principles, from well-being to geriatric perspectives, increasingly become the focal point of AACE. Another question relevant in this context is the increasing problem of educational equality. The knowledge and education gap concerns AACE in unexpected and barely researched areas, for instance when despite an increase in media-based aesthetic and cultural participatory formats these options still hinge on milieu-specific, habitual styles and patterns of media use and prove to be markedly dependent on the participants’ background and degree of formal education. The perspective of AACE thus has generally shifted toward intersectional contact with fields such as media pedagogy and media education.
3. Policy/Governance (Dr. Teunis IJdens, Utrecht)
Aesthetics, arts and cultural education (AACE) can be studied as a system and as an ensemble of practices involving various actors. Governance – public and private regulation (cf. Bevir 2013) – is one element of an AACE system, along with a structure of opportunities for aesthetic, arts and cultural learning, with funding mechanisms and with a set of beliefs (key concepts, definitions, approaches) regarding AACE (IJdens 2015). AACE practice refers to what is learned and taught by whom to whom, where, how and why. Public policy (deliberate intervention or non-intervention by government (Weible 2014)) regarding AACE can be studied from two sides: how public policy affects the system of AACE or AACE practices; or how changes in the system of AACE or its practices affect public policy. This presupposes that public policy and AACE (system and practice) are separate but interacting domains, just like (e.g.) public policy and health care or agriculture. Systemic changes and transformations in AACE practice may occur independent from public policy, or as a result of public policy or as part of broader social, cultural, political or institutional dynamics that affect both public policy and AACE. The workshop focuses on the interaction between public policy and AACE on the level of discourse (definitions, concepts, values, benefits, goals, ‘beliefs’) and from the angle of public management (governance, regulation, implementation, evaluation). The discursive level includes so-called ‘transfer’ issues (AACE’s alleged non-arts outcomes) as opposed to aesthetic, arts and cultural leaning ‘in itself’ (Schumacher 2006, 2009; Winner et al. 2013; Rittelmeyer 2013). Public management refers to the means by which public policies regarding AACE actually influence schools’, teachers’, cultural agents’ and learners’ attitudes and behaviour (cf. Osborn & McNess 2005; IJdens & Van Hoorn 2014; Abs et al. 2013). In the introduction to the workshop some data on expected benefits of AACE and on AACE research issues will be drawn from two surveys among arts education experts around the world as part of the international research project Monitoring National Arts Education Systems (MONAES).
4. Digitalization (Prof. Dr. Benjamin Jörissen, Erlangen)
Digital technologies and digital media have steadily transformed aesthetic and artistic participation as well as processes, means, and contexts of expression in the past decades. This is true for all areas of action – from digitalized production and distribution to the digitalization of cultural objects and the emergence of massive public archives, from the ubiquitization of everyday aesthetic practices of articulation on the social web (e.g. SoundCloud, Instagram) to postdigital cultural practices and postinternet art, and from the paradigm shift away from the notion of the subject-centred artwork to distributive and algorithmicized forms of aesthetic and artistic production in remix cultures. Software, code, algorithms, and deep learning networks as independent actors have furthermore begun to develop alternative, autonomous quasi-perceptual structures (Parisi 2013). They have also emerged as the immediate actors of aesthetic productions, e.g. in the contexts of the algorithm-based reproduction of artistic styles or the implementation of new aesthetic principles (e.g. glitch aesthetic, granular sound synthesis). How can or should educational processes that are networked and distributed among hybrid actors and the concomitant aesthetic and artistic practices transform the traditional educational-theoretical and conceptual models in the field of AACE in order to be able to adequately account for these phenomena?
5. Visual Culture (Prof. Dr. Catarina Silva Martins)
POWER/KNOWLEDGE RELATIONS AND THE PRODUCING OF SUBJECTIVITIES THROUGH VISUAL CULTURE: HISTORICAL AND CONTEMPORARY APPROACHES
Starting by Jeremy Bentham Panopticon and going through the age of images’ mechanical reproduction, we will focus how the gaze is a site of power/knowledge relations in the production of the modern and contemporary citizens in Western visual cultures. The travelling will cross times, disciplines, places, texts and images questioning how and what to see, how to be seen, what and how to represent, how to be represented, were constituted as discursive sites with practical implications in the ways we see, think and act as certain kinds of person. It will also focus on how these practices produce effects of inclusion and exclusion. What implications does the western centrality of the eye (and its blindness) have for arts education in the contemporary world?
6. Methodology (Dr. Juliane Engel, Erlangen)
Research in general as well as in the field of AACE is not independent from social and cultural dynamics of transformation. Media, visual and technological transformations not only require that methods be adapted to them but also concern methods as scientific strategies for making visible and for translating objects into manageable (quantitative or qualitative) data. Any given method is determined by the theory that underpins it, and, vice versa, any given theory is constituted by the methodology in which it is grounded. However, the theories on which particular methods are based often do not become visible and have hardly ever been addressed in empirical research studies on cultural education until now. The master class will address that gap by examining more closely the interplay between theory and method: How do cultural transformations in the areas of digitalization, governance, policy, and demography not only generate new research objects but also necessitate developing new methods and methodologies for the research in AACE? It is precisely this development of methods that will be the focus of the master class. For this purpose methodological discourses within the field of science provide potentials that are strongly legitimized according to their own logic. What potentials do methodological trends and developments hold for the research in AACE? And how do they relate to methodological transformations of the field and its topical constructs?
