This monograph carries out an in-depth investigation into
compositional processes, shedding new light on the components and
conditions that constitute artistic agency. Artistic agency relies
on the interlocking of such activities that emerge from various
propositional and non-propositional (experiential, corporeal,
sensory) forms of knowledge - listening, feeling, imagining, trying
out, reflecting, noting and correcting, which represents a small
selection of the multifaceted composing activities. The book
develops an understanding of artistic agency and mastery in its
fundamentally social nature, through the important, though largely
ignored output of creative compositional processes. Using a mixture
of case studies and theoretical frameworks, this book will appeal
to sociologists, musicologists, creative studies scholars, and
artists, particularly those who teach composition or research on
this topic, as well as students of MA- and PhD-level.
This anthology contains seven texts by Kurt Blaukopf (1914-1999)
that exemplify the sociological and epistemological position of
this pioneer of Austrian music sociology. Blaukopf's efforts were
aimed at a comprehensive, interdisciplinary approach and analysis
of music as a cultural phenomenon and as social practice. The
primary aim of this anthology is to make Blaukopf's work better
known in the English-speaking world. It offers the interested
reader a fruitful analysis of the relation between music sociology
and its sister disciplines, e.g. musicology, a solid analysis in
terms of the philosophy of science on the possibilities and limits
of music sociology, and a highly topical discussion about the
significance of intrinsic artistic aspects in music sociology.
Art matters. It affects us in our daily lives and is full of
meanings that are valuable to all of us. As a catalyst for social
interactions, art may either cause public conflict and create
dissensions or facilitate mutual understanding and strengthen
collective bonds. All of this is grounded in practices that develop
and change along social interaction, cultural dynamics, as well as
technological and economic lines. So how is art formed and
produced? What are the relevant constraints and challenges that
artists experience in the creative process? And what constitutes
artistic agency? This collection of contributions from
international, interdisciplinary experts explores particular case
studies to deeply analyse artistic practices. Comprising eleven
chapters relating to different art forms, each chapter offers an
original perspective conveying a comprehensive understanding of
artistic practices as arrays of specific activities in contemporary
art worlds. This book will be important for both researchers and
practitioners in the field. It will help artists to deepen their
analytical abilities, enabling them to further their own creative
practice. It will allow students and researchers to gain insights
into processes of artistic creation and thus into the reproduction
of art, as well as innovation in the arts.

Die Autoren untersuchen kompositorische Schaffensprozesse, wobei
weder einzelne KomponistInnen noch ihre Werke im Vordergrund
stehen. Sie erweitern die Selbstbeschreibungen der KomponistInnen
beziehungsweise deren Ich-Perspektiven durch einen soziologisch und
wissenstheoretisch inspirierten Ansatz, um Inhalte
herauszuarbeiten, die sonst im Hintergrund der situativen
Aufmerksamkeit bleiben. Somit richtet sich das Interesse der
Autoren auf jene Komponenten und Bedingungen, die kunstlerische
Handlungsfahigkeit konstituieren. Kompositionsprozesse werden
folglich als offene und dynamische Vorgange betrachtet. Hoeren,
Fuhlen, Vorstellen, Suchen, Entwerfen, Ausprobieren, Spielen,
Nachdenken, Notieren und Korrigieren stellen eine kleine Auswahl
der vielschichtigen kompositorischen Aktivitaten dar.
Kunstlerisch-praktisches Koennen bildet sich aus einer steten
Verzahnung solcher Aktivitaten, denen kognitive, sinnliche,
koerperliche und erfahrungsgeleitete Wissensformen zugrunde liegen.
Die Kulturbetriebsforschung befasst sich mit der Konzeption,
Produktion, Distribution und Rezeption von Kulturgutern, die in
einem dynamisch interagierenden und institutionell strukturierten
Handlungsfeld stattfinden - namlich im Kulturbetrieb. Die
Komplexitat des Forschungsgegenstandes, die Notwendigkeit
praxisnaher Beobachtungen und die Vielfalt der theoretischen
Ansatze, die oft im Hintergrund die Forschung beeinflussen,
erzwingen eine standige Reflexion der Entwicklung und Perspektiven
der Kulturbetriebsforschung. Dieses Buch stellt aktuelle Ansatze
und Konzeptionen der Kulturbetriebsforschung dar.
Das Buch stellt "Kulturbetriebslehre" als eine Synthese von
kultur-, sozial- und wirtschaftswissenschaftlichen Einsichten
umfassend dar.
