Goethe-Institut Germany: Artistic work in social and educational contexts – national and regional projects and approaches of the Goethe-Institut
Artistic work in social and educational contexts: national and regional projects and approaches of the Goethe-Institut
Cultural education plays an important role in the work of all departments of the Goethe-Institut around the globe. Artistic projects within the areas of music, theatre, video, literature and other arts always take into account local traditions into account in the activities of the departments.
This presentation focuses on
a) artistic interventions within the context of German language acquisition mainly addressing youth at school in different countries
b) the use of art in cultural and political education projects in Germany as a new structure inside the Goethe-Institut for international cultural exchange
c) the support of artists in the mentorship project Hub@Goethe in Johannesburg and the embedding of artist in the project “Let’s Game Jam Art”, which is situated on VR Chat and connects artists and coders.
