| Description: | |
| 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. Beside presenting several concrete models (6M1L, PAF, East Dance Academy, Mobile Akademie, everybodys, Practicable...) and the way they function, we have sought to indicate the shift in the very notion of knowledge, which occurs as the cumulative result of heterogeneous practices implemented by these various models.
Beyond the thematic bloc, although not entirely beyond the scope of the highways of knowledge theme, the reader will find several texts published only in Croatian or only in English. In these texts, Frakcija is joining the debate on the problem of imperialism in the performative arts, reviewing a new book from the Akcija series (Jon McKenzie, Perform or Else), and drawing attention to the new theatre performances by Bobo Jelcic & Natasa Rajkovic and Vili Matula. The last contribution in this issue proposes some new answers to the challenge that we have been facing from the earliest days of our journal: whether it is (still / at all) possible to respond to performance (re-act, re-construct, re-flect) beyond the genre of criticism or analysis. |
