Autumn 2010

What educational and cultural policy need more than ever these days is not adjustments to make them fit the corset of social and economic framework conditions, but rather the courage to try out innovative ideas.

For the autumn issue of kulturkontakt magazine, we invited a number of experts to present their viewpoints on future-oriented concepts for education and culture as well as their assessments of the possible consequences.

The magazine also features an interview with federal school students’ spokesperson Pia Bauer and musician/artist Skero on their ideas about the future. In addition, this issue presents KKA’s own innovative projects aimed at breaking new ground and opening up perspectives for trend-setting action. As always, we have also put a spotlight on the works of artists, those “agitators of the future, who build catapults for shots into the realm of the outstanding“ (Sloterdijk).
