This second edition of ‘Arts Education’ presents, as a point of interest, the notion of art’s place in schools, and how these schools are coordinated, promoting mainstreaming and networking.

Arts Education II. The places of art: school, mainstreaming and networks aims to demonstrate how the arts can play a key role in the emerging innovation and transformation of education in Catalonia, revealing schools and projects that coordinate their relationship with the arts in their own unique way. An approach to a set of practices, together with their methodologies and processes that, although diverse, define ways of working that share some commonality: practices born and developed together with the educational community and its surroundings. Students are active protagonists in processes by which artistic practices become driving forces for change. Ultimately, all projects presented here are linked, some more closely than others, in collaboration with education networks, as in the case of network Nova 21, the Escoles Tandem network, Escoles Magnet, Waldorf or the Innovation Centres Network of the Autonomous University of Barcelona’s Institute of Education Sciences. The projects invited to the exhibition and presentation sessions are: Escola El Puig (Esparraguera), Escola Miquel Bleach (Barcelona), Institut Moisés Broggi (Barcelona), Escola Tretzevents Waldorf-Steiner (Sant Cugat del Vallès), Escola Dovella (Barcelona), Institut Escola Les Vinyes (Castellbisbal).
