A new art school? Statements by 30 artists, writers and architects.<\/p>\n

Over the past two decades, Berlin\u2019s growth into an international art metropolis has brought many people to the city. A number of these imports teach art \u2013 seemingly in all other cities but Berlin. The city\u2019s two schools providing full-scale arts education \u2013 the Universit\u00e4t der K\u00fcnste (UdK) and the Hochschule Berlin Weissensee \u2013 were established long before 1989.<\/p>\n

Since 2006, if not before, discussions about the UdK\u2019s organizational and administrative politics have flared up \u2013 generated, for one, by the stepping down of Stan Douglas and Daniel Richter as professors, a development the UdK attempted to atone for by appointing prominent professors such as Olafur Eliasson (whose assignment though ends March 2014). Weissensee has seen an outflow of professors with international profiles to teaching posts in other cities \u2013 Karin Sander has taught in Zurich since 2007, Katharina Grosse in D\u00fcsseldorf since 2010 \u2013 and the school has gone the way of appointing guest professors and lecturers.<\/p>\n

Reputations, ratings and capacities for reform aside, the question still presents itself whether Berlin, given its manifold art scene, is in need of new models and directions for its art education. In 2006\u20137, the one-year temporary project unitednationsplaza underscorred the city\u2019s desire for an informal art school mediating its larger, international art discourse.<\/p>\n

Does the current situation suffice? If not, what form would a new institute ideally take? frieze d\/e asked Monica BONVICINI, Helmut DRAXLER, Tom HOLERT and Robert KUDIELKA for extended responses to these questions. A set of additional artists and theorists also contributed shorter statements.<\/p>\n

Finally, six artists and architects \u2013 Roger BUNDSCHUH, Eva GRUBINGER, Sabine HORNIG, Michelle HOWARD, KUEHN MALVEZZI, and Studio MIESSEN \u2013 were asked to submit concrete drafts for the design and structure of a new art academy.<\/p>\n

And much more…<\/p>\n
