This post introduces readers to the second Special Issue we have co-edited on the umbrella theme of ‘Politicizing Artistic Pedagogies’. The first Special Issue, entitled ‘Politicizing Artistic Pedagogies: Publics, Spaces, Teachings’, was published in late 2021 in the journal Art & the Public Sphere. There was a subsequent Progress in Political Economy Forum containing several blog posts which drew on articles in that issue. The second Special Issue is now out and is entitled ‘Politicizing Artistic Pedagogies: Disciplines, Practices, Struggles’. Our editorial roles switched for the issue, with Mel taking the lead this time. This reflects the distinctive outlook and coverage of the two issues: the first has a broader, more societal scope, while the second has more of an art-discipline/practice focus. Nevertheless, as noted in our essay introducing the first issue, we still believe that ‘the two issues should be understood as complementary and thus together comprising a greater “whole”…[and] we have ensured that there are still plenty of overlaps between them’ [...].
