This publication 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 teachers.
Drawing on best-practice examples and a variety of innovative projects, it becomes
clear which spaces for action and reflection each individual artistic approach opens up in interaction. These essays explore
the specific potential that teaching "from art" opens up for educational processes, self-awareness, world experience, critical
reflection and ability to act, and the production of knowledge.
