(Ebook) Curating and the Educational Turn by Paul O'Neill, Mick Wilson ISBN 9780949004185, 0949004189

In recent years there has been increased debate on the incorporation of pedagogy into curatorial practice-on what has been termed "the educational turn" ("turn" in the sense of a paradigmatic reorientation, within the arts). In this new volume, artists, curators, critics and academics respond to this widely recognized turn in contemporary art. Consisting primarily of newly commissioned texts, from interviews and position statements to performative text and dialogue, Curating and the Educational Turn also includes a number of previously published writings that have proved primary in the debate so far. Companion to the critically acclaimed Curating Subjects, this anthology presents an essential question for anyone interested in the cultural politics of production at the intersections of art, teaching and learning. Contributors include David Aguirre, Dave Beech, Cornford & Cross, Charles Esche, Liam Gillick, Tom Holert and Emily Pethick.
