15.15 Culture and pedagogy - and the beginning of everything

- Campus Torv

This lecture will discuss how the concepts aesthetics,

culture and bildung are closely connected in every

decent form of general pedagogy. It is here we develop

our humanity, and it cannot be done without close

attention to these aspects of life.

● Brian Degn Mårtensson, Aarhus University

16.00 Debate session

Art & culture: Whose benefit is it anyway?

With art and culture, our aim is to reach children in a

way that strengthens their personal, social and

educational skills. We want to promote their curiosity,

sensuousness and awareness and provide a space for

diverse expressions and inclusive learning environments.

The question is: how far do all our good intentions go?

Do we reach children in their own context? Or are our

actions influenced by our own ambitions and ’what we

think art and culture can do for children’?
