Abstract:

How art can be taught with stability and structure, situated between laissez-faire and seemingly unlimited possibilities, will be examined from multiple perspectives in the didactic seminar Translating II taking place during the winter semester 2024/25 in the subject of Art and Communicative Practice. The teaching pursued at the Centre for Didactics of Art and Interdisciplinary Education (Head: Univ.-Prof. Dr. Ruth Mateus-Berr) at the University of Applied Arts Vienna builds a bridge / translation from artistic visions and positions to a mediation concept in secondary schools. The students’ teaching concepts resulting from the seminar are examined and tested in a subject-related practical course in different schools in Vienna and lower Austria and scientifically contextualised within the framework of the seminar. A special focus is placed on the associated action research. The overarching aim of the course is to shed new light on art education in a school context, paying particular attention to rhythms and movement. In addition to exploring opportunities for the creative development of pupils, the course also focuses on how teachers can best master everyday school life and maintain their well-being within the framework of high-quality art lessons.
