The lynx\u2019s tail is scratching the love pan.
Posthumous creature is silent.
Just follow its gestures,
plant the words in your mouth,
shallow all big theories,
salivate your food,
learn how to chew.
Your sweat is a memory.
Your production is cursed.
Nothing is broken, except linearity.
Unruly parts are not b-r-o-k-e-n.
Tiny parts are broken, but no more comparisons.
No bodyguards,
just bodies defending dirty words,
engine fluids,
and water.

The KKP program<\/strong> combines artistic, scientific and art-educational practices, which serve as opportunities to allow for experiences of difference* within teaching and learning processes. The focus rests, on the one hand, on developing individual and collaborative artistic and educational practices. On the other hand, it involves reflecting on the socio-political conditions in which artistic and educational projects take place and how they are produced and positioned. In this way, students get prepared to read and actively shape images, texts, practices and processes. They learn to analyze these in relation to migration, climate change, ecosystems, labor markets, digitalization, and shifting formations of subjectivity, and to consciously participate within them.  <\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

*The term 'experience of difference'<\/em> describes the realization that one's own perspective, knowledge, actions, or identity are not the only possibilities. In other words, I experience a contrast between what I already knew and something new or different.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The course program<\/strong> includes a diverse range of seminars and artistic positions that understand the fields of art, art education, artistic research, and digital\/visual cultures as modes of critical thought and action, as well as experimental practice. The KKP team consists of approximately 20 artists led by Univ.-Prof. Sofia Bempeza and Univ.-Prof. Annette Krauss. Faculty and students develop individual practices, focusing on artistic-educational, performative, and research-based approaches that prepare students to critically and actively engage with knowledge and image production among others. We shape the Program of Art and Communication Practices (KKP) as an incomplete process in which knowledge and artistic practices are explored performatively, affectively, and collaboratively. This involves not only an un-learning of our patterns of thought, action, and perception within social, economic, and geopolitical contexts, but also the co-shaping of caring societal processes. We continue this work from an artistic, situated and polyphonic perspective.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

We build upon<\/strong> practical and situated knowledge within this artistic and educational program, as well as the continuity of the field of study in regard to transdisciplinary practices. Graduates of the program work as educators, artists, cultural producers, and art mediators in both formal and informal educational sectors: as art teachers in secondary schools, in higher education, and in art and cultural mediation, such as in art and cultural spaces, museums, and galleries.<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

They develop<\/strong> new practices at the intersections of art and culture, science, education, and society. Additional exchange semesters at international universities and participation in the department's interdisciplinary, transdisciplinary, and transcultural projects open up a broad and diverse field of experience and practice to students, shaped by multiple perspectives. <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The Department of Art and Communication Practices is part of the Institute of Studies in Art and Art Education<\/a>
