Novelist Pip Adam reflects on the processes involved in three of her recent projects: a novel, The New Animals (2017); a community newspaper and art project; and her educational work in creative writing classes in prisons. Drawing on Raymond Williams and Kenneth Goldsmith, Adam considers the relationship between the work of art and the work involved in producing art, and consider some of the ways in which the language of creativity and inspiration may undermine democratic energies.

Les œuvres des autres civilisations, les «arts premiers » d'hier à aujourd'hui, n'ont été véritablement confrontées en tant que telles aux œuvres d'art occidentales que depuis un siècle environ, jusqu'à être maintenant de plus en plus mises en scène (voir le futur Musée du Quai Branly, à Paris en 2004). Un recul nous est donc acquis qui permet désormais de ne plus les penser de façon exclusivement ethnologique ou bien esthétique.
Ces œuvres ouvrent clandestinement à chacun un passage vers un territoire de questionnement et donc de liberté, pour remettre en cause de façon toujours actuelle les définitions de l'Art que l'on aurait été tenté de croire définitivement admises.

Procuro neste texto, discutir o processo de avaliação na escola de modo geral e em específico, na disciplina de Artes, tendo como questões mobilizadoras: O que significa avaliar em Artes? É possível dar nota nesta disciplina? Se deixar de dar nota, estarei avaliando? Para buscar os caminhos destas difíceis respostas, inicio, a partir da minha participação no projeto "Escola Singular: ações plurais", um processo de estudo e reflexão teórica contribuindo sobremaneira para o modo como venho desenvolvendo minha prática no que se refere à disciplina de Artes.

Résumé L'Afrique, qui n'a pas connu l'art moderne, donne à l'art contemporain sa pleine authenticité, et sa nécessité vraie. C'est à cette conclusion réjouissante que nous conduit une récente exposition, « Africa Remix ».

Abstract: Contemporary post-aesthetic art implies an expanded concept of the work of art that also includes political functions. Beuys's concept of social sculpture and Marcuse's idea of society as a work of art can be complemented by Abreu's project of
a musical orchestra as a social ideal (the Venezuelan example of the music and education project El Sistema) and the Neue Slowenische Kunst transnational state formed from the core of art. These concepts are close to the views of Hakim Bey (Temporary Autonomous Zone), with D'Annunzio
also touching upon them with his State of Fiume (1919–1920), for which he wrote the constitution and defined music as its central governing principle. Although the art state is a utopian project, art can serve a variety of emancipatory functions even in the dystopian present to intervene
in and change the political. In this article, we also discuss the case of art activism in Slovenia, where culture (with many engaged artists) has become a central part of civil society oriented towards social change. Art activism contributes to an expanded concept of the political, which includes
new subjects and new forms of antagonisms. Likewise, such repurposing of art emphasises its role in research.

Through its embrace of the 'cultural turn' and the 'practice turn' in cultural sociology, recent work in the subfield of arts sociology has helped to advance our understanding of the role of culture in social life through its focus on arts-in-action. Empirically, this focus grew out of earlier work in the production and consumption of the arts, while, theoretically, it resonates with traditions within ethnomethodology, cognitive sociology, and the sociology of science and technology. The authors describe how new work in arts sociology unearths and develops our understanding of aesthetic consciousness, the tacit and often embodied bases of action, cognition, and engagement with cultural forms. This recent emphasis on materials and actions in turn permits critique of rule-based and more overtly cognitive models of agency structure. It also leads some of its proponents into areas that would not normally be viewed as topics for the field.

O presente artigo tem por objetivo compreender a discussão entre a alternativa entre uma arte autônoma e uma arte política/de tendência. A partir do referencial teórico do marxista húngaro György Lukács, o texto busca criticar o caráter enrijecido do debate devido à limitação da concepção de sujeito e sociedade inerente à ideologia burguesa, assim como sua tentativa de produzir uma filosofia da arte desvinculada das questões histórico-sociais de seu tempo.

The transition to post-industr'ism is marked by increasing pol'al concern for the quality of life. The arts, an important determinant of the quality of life, are affected by this transition in the following ways: growth of mass participation in cultural activities; elaboration of the instit'al framework of the arts; formation of a 'culture lobby'; & pol'alization. Decisionmakers in gov, business, res, & educ must begin to take into account, as one entry in their cost-benefit ledgers, the cultural consequences of their actions. A cultural data system is needed to provide information for rational policy-making in the cultural field & to assist those outside the field in understanding their impact on it. A tentative model is constructed to facilitate the monitoring of qualitative, as well as quantitative, changes in the arts in contemporary society. 15 variables are suggested, which, taken together, comprise an index of the state of health of a nation's culture. Ways are proposed by which changes in these variables can be statistically measured. HA.
