Art schools in our universities play a big role in many ways and
not only within the institutions they are situated in. When
considering that the act of engaging in arts and culture has a
demonstrable but indirect effect on innovation, welfare, social
cohesion, entrepreneurship, local identity and the knowledge
economy, our universities can and do use arts to make themselves
more permeable and to provide co-created spaces of learning. This
book is a timely exploration of where creative practices and arts
live in our higher education communities? How do creatives shape
this creative education ecosystem? How does art provide an
interface between what is within and outside of our knowledge
institutions? And why should all of this matter for our
communities, for the economy and for our society, specifically in a
post pandemic recovery. Carola Boehm explores the delightful ways
that art finds itself in every corner of academia, exploring
questions of where art lives in the university sector and how it
interacts with the outside, interfacing with the communities beyond
its boundaries, and how it got where it is today. And with all that
comes the advocacy of providing a strong justification that we need
creative provisions in our universities, as there are few more
powerful tools left to our disposal that can glue together and heal
our divided society and our fragmented humanity.
