Inhoud
This course is an introduction to the institutions, agencies, corporate interests and legal frameworks that comprise the contemporary arts sector at the national, international and transnational levels, and the specific discourse that composes this sector. Attention is given to both the formal and the informal art world, and the specific forms of textual and archival practices in which they engage. Theoretical readings on institutionality, governmentality and globalization inform the study of various institutional stakeholders: museums, performing arts companies, festival organizers, ministries of culture, policy makers, intellectual property organizations and grant foundations.
The student prepares and conducts an interview with someone from the cultural sector, which results in a portfolio with e.g. the relevant artefacts that were collected during the preparation, a topic list, a coded transcript, and in an essay based on the interview and the collected information.

Career orientation:
Gain insight in the different types of text used in the arts-based work (e.g. grant proposals, policy papers).
Gain insight in the role of institutions within the domains of the arts and society, and the position of extra-institutional practices.
