“Clearly this man, who had been a genuinely great teacher of things I could no longer be excited by, saw learning as a series of turns.”

Things are universally connected, things are eternal development, existence is reasonable.

“They allow us to think of “learning” as taking place in situations or sites that don’t necessarily intend or prescribe such activity.”

For example, in Tate Learning is to ensure that visitors are able to access sufficient skills in ‘learning how to learn’ to build their own knowledge with art.

The Tate Modern

At Tate our vision is to inspire new ways of learning with art and specifically with Tate’s Collection in a way that reaches a wider audience and that promotes positive change, dialogue and engagement in contemporary cultural and artistic life.

The “linguistic turn” in the 1970s

The linguistic turn, sometimes called cultural and aesthetic, also began to affect historical writing around the mid-1960s. The linguistic turn has forced historians to rethink traditional ideas about the nature and function of language and the relationships between language and historical representation, between author and text, between text and reader. Moreover, ‘The turning in theory and humanities is not very similar to the reduction and change strategy, but more of the continuation of compliance in the existing field or ideological path’ (Rogoff, 2010)

A pedagogical one—across another system—one of display, exhibition, and manifestation

Criticism includes description, positioning, reflection, and discussion of educational models and practices in curation and art practice.

“Educational Turn in Curating”

Different educational forms and structural models, alternative teaching methods and programs appear in contemporary art curatorial practice. The concepts of the educational structure, acquisition and sharing of knowledge, art/curatorial research, and knowledge production related to the educational turning are developed.

Educational turns

Educational change is a theme that refers to art that tends to cooperate or is based on research. The focus is not on the art itself, but on the educational process itself, as well as the internal and external discussions of the exhibition, the environment, and the teaching methods of art.
