Summary

'Tacit Knowledge' provides an insight into the complex artistic and educational practices that characterized the first decade of the California Institute of the Arts (CalArts). There is a special focus on the conceptual and feminist strategies developed in and from John Baldessari's Post Studio class as well as Judy Chicago and Miriam Schapiro's Feminist Art Program, which was initiated in 1970 and brought to the newly founded art school in 1971. As Post Studio and feminist practices at CalArts are often characterized by the specific entanglement of cognitive and (habitual) bodily forms of knowledge, the idea of tacit knowledge, and thus learning through social and performative contexts of action, functions as an overarching principle linking all the contributions in the book. Combining short introductions with in-depth case studies and a broad range of documental and photographic material, the experimental publication takes the form of a magazine, allowing a diverse and lively approach to the ideas shaping the early years of CalArts. -- publisher's statement.
The symposium 'Tacit Knowledge: The Impact of Post Studio Concepts and Feminist Practices, CalArts 1970-77' takes place on October 26, 2019, at Schloss Herrenhausen and the Kestner Gesellschaft, Hanover, and is part of the perennial collaboration between the Freie Universität Berlin, the Kestner Gesellschaft, and metaLAB (at) Harvard, Harvard University, in the context of the research project 'Tacit Knowledge: Post Studio/Feminism - CalArts (1970-77)'. It addresses the topicality and impact of artistic production processes at the U.S. art school California Institute of the Arts (CalArts), especially Post Studio and feminist practices, on contemporary forms of artistic research, their social implications in public spaces and exhibition practices. 'Tacit Knowledge: the Impact of Post Studio Concepts and Feminist Practices, CalArts 1970-77' concludes the exhibition 'Where Art Might Happen: The Early Years of CalArts', on show from August 30 until November 10, 2019, at the Kestner Gesellschaft. The exhibition will travel to Kunsthaus Graz from March 13 to June 7, 2020. The book 'Tacit Knowledge: Post Studio/Feminism-CalArts (1970-77)' accompanies the symposium and the exhibition. It was conceived and edited by Annette Jael Lehmann in collaboration with her master students and Verena Kittel from the Institut für Theaterwissenschaft, Freie Universität Berlin. -- [https://arthist.net/archive/21633].
