Issue no. 41
Theme: Highways of Knowledge
Editor(s): Oliver Frljic
Language: English, Croatian
Description:
Unlike the earlier educational models, whose basic feature was a strict classification into the segments of production, distribution, and accumulation, the new educational models, which have appeared only recently, problematize precisely that fundamental characteristic, permanently upsetting the circular currents of knowledge, the number of subjects involved, the dynamics of exchange, and the definition of various types of knowledge, as well as the promise of emancipation in the broader context of production. It is that promise that has become crucial, for along with the essential openness towards realization in any context, here remains a latent possibility of falling into the trap of new disciplinarity or a representation of emancipation effects (e.g. through "programmed individuation"). This thematic issue of Frakcija seeks to indicate the complexity of education problem, especially in the field of artistic production and educational models that are formative in this respect, regardless of whether they precede it, follow it as the conceptualisation of certain practices, or occur in a sort of mutuality that we may describe with the formula "art as knowledge production."
