A theoretical publication on educational processes and what it means to teach and learn fine arts in a city such as Zurich, this book also reflects on the field works made by the MFA students in 2017 in Athens, Beirut, and Lesbos. From a reflection on \u201cbaroque brutalism\u201d held in an interview with German artist Florian Dombois about the ZHdK building, and documents and interviews reporting the encounters with different professionals (a Beirut-based NZZ correspondant, Greek artists and curators, a Lebanese rapper from Tripoli, NGO volunteers in Lesbos), to an essay by Brazilian philosopher Rodrigo Nunes on \u201cPolitics as Pedagogy,\u201d and a consideration of the relationship between artistic practices and activism in our changing global world by American cultural critic T. J. Demos, for Bernardi an MFA today is not only about learning, producing, and exhibiting, but also about thinking its position and modalities in the international network of fine art schools and how it can be part of an \u201cvirtuous\u201d international cultural ecosystem.<\/span><\/p>\n<p>Other contributions include a conversation between Swiss curators Judith Welter and Ian Wooldridge about the 2017 MFA Degree Show, visual and text contributions by MFA faculty members Dominique L\u00e4mmli and Erik Steinbrecher, as well as an essay by MFA graduate student Caroline Ann Baur on the possible futures of femininity. The book\u2019s graphic design embodies the stakes of the publication through its wide system of cross-references, as well as its use of political activist Rini Templeton\u2019s pictograms.<\/p>\n<p>Autors: C<span class=\"texteb2\">aroline Ann Baur, T.J.

Stemming from the Master Fine Arts at the Zurich University of the Arts, and edited by MFA director Donatella Bernardi, the series\u2019 ambition is to replace the traditional \u201cdegree show\u201d catalogue with a theoretical publication showing the path followed by the students-turned-artists over the course of the year, and to explore how an educational institution based in Zurich can locate itself within the global (art) world. <\/span><\/p>\n<p>320 pages, jrp|Ringier, 2018<br \/>\nISBN 978-3-03764-525-3<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":2268,"template":"","meta":[],"product_brand":[],"product_cat":[984,145,367,986,988],"product_tag":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-2266","1":"product","2":"type-product","3":"status-publish","4":"has-post-thumbnail","6":"product_cat-bernardi-donatella","7":"product_cat-ifcar","8":"product_cat-dombois-florian","9":"product_cat-laemmli-dominique","10":"product_cat-steinbrecher-erik","12":"first","13":"instock","14":"shipping-taxable","15":"product-type-external"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/publikationen.zhdk.ch\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/product\/2266","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/publikationen.zhdk.ch\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/product"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/publikationen.zhdk.ch\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/product"}],"version-history":[{"count":8,"href":"https:\/\/publikationen.zhdk.ch\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/product\/2266\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":4575,"href":"https:\/\/publikationen.zhdk.ch\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/product\/2266\/revisions\/4575"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/publikationen.zhdk.ch\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/2268"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/publikationen.zhdk.ch\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=2266"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"product_brand","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/publikationen.zhdk.ch\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fproduct_brand&post=2266"},{"taxonomy":"product_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/publikationen.zhdk.ch\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fproduct_cat&post=2266"},{"taxonomy":"product_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/publikationen.zhdk.ch\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fproduct_tag&post=2266"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
