How about an English lesson in an art environment?
Have your English students participate in a workshop run
by English professionals and art educators!
‚Museum Highlights’
The Museum der Moderne Salzburg is currently showing works by American
performance artist Andrea Fraser. As a student of French sociologist Pierre Bourdieu,
Fraser’s focus as both an artist and scientist is on society and institutions – like art
museums.
Her works deal with the unspoken relations between artists, art works and viewers.
What do we expect when we visit a museum?
How do we experience art works?
What makes an artist?
Why do we listen to a tour guide?
Do you always agree to the guide’s explanations?
We’ll take a closer look at Andrea Fraser’s videos and installations and encourage
students to speak their minds.
Be part of the scene!
