CMA Seminar Series  - Aesthetic Education in the Technological Age

This talk starts with the problems and responses that Friedrich Schiller laid down in his Letters on the Aesthetic Education concerning the conflict between reason and feeling; and how this mode of education was problematized in the second half of the 20th century, especially with the arrival of the Postmodern and its new technological condition. I suggest identifying another form of aesthetic education in Jean-François Lyotard’s response, exemplified by his legendary exhibition at the Centre Georges Pompidou Les Immatériaux (1985). By reconstructing such a historical lineage, the talk attempts to reflect on the task of aesthetic education in our own technological age.
