Birgit Fritz (University of Applied Sciences Würzburg-Schweinfurt) and Gisella Vismara (Academy of Fine Arts Vienna) in dialogue with Valentina Duelli.
In the tradition of critical pedagogy, it is the mission and goal of education to help people learn to recognize the mechanisms of power that shape their lives, which is an essential precondition for self-empowering change. How can this view be linked to art education and the visual and performing arts?
