School of Life

“But so-called real life, where we are subject to an endless variety of improvisations, suggestions, confusions, and catastrophes, is also finally without any rules. Ultimately, teaching art means teaching life.” –Boris Groys “Education by Infection” in MADOFF, S.H., ed., 2009. ART SCHOOL (propositions for the 21st Century)

  2. I'm tempted to say No, but then it strikes me that parents must be teaching their kids something!?

    I know what you mean though. It could easily be seen as a conceited claim.

    I noted the quote the other day and also saw the sign above the door of the room where we were marking resits (also the location of my MA show) and I just thought it somehow appropriate.
