Educational U-turn. Who else is producing knowledges in culture?

Derived from the symposium* of the 2nd Curatorial Forum titled «Educational U-turn. Who else is producing knowledges in culture?», this publication re-addresses the problems raised by the educational turn in order to ponder over the relationship between curatorial and educational practices in their inextricable but unequal relationships, and to think together about the challenges that cultural institutions face today given all the uncertainties and complexities contemporaneity is bringing.

The book includes translations of texts by foreign researchers of educational processes in culture and art, articles, interviews and discussions in the format of correspondence on the role, place and future of educational practices in museum and exhibition institutions, as well as a glossary—a dictionary of current terms.

There are no images in the publication. This made the task even more interesting. How to create an exciting and varied layout using layout and typography? Different publication formats helped. Each section had its own layout and composition.
