Basak Senova contributed an article to Heterotopias of the Artistic – Teaching as Artistic Practice, edited by Barbara Putz-Plecko. This book presents and documents 16 years of artistic teaching and research at the Department of Art and Communicative Practice at the University of Applied Arts Vienna. It illustrates the specific approach to artistic teaching in different media fields, building on the artistic practice of individual instructors. Drawing on best-practice examples and diverse, innovative projects, the interplay of various artistic approaches reveals the spaces for action and reflection they open up. The contributions explore the specific potential that teaching “from art” offers for educational processes, self-discovery, global experience, critical reflection, action skills, and knowledge production.
