TEACHERS WITH ARTISTIC SPECIALIZATIONS BETWEEN CULTURAL MEDIATION AND INTERCULTURAL EDUCATION

Summary/Abstract: Cultural mediation is a process that aims to restore the links between society and culture, between art and the public, between culture and populations. The role for cultural mediation is to create the conditions of a meeting, of an open dialogue. Cultural mediation represents the staging of the triad made of the public, the work and the mediator. The objectives of cultural mediation, the principles of cultural mediation, the profession of cultural mediator, are just a few of the, until now, undefined aspects by public policy, both educational and cultural, in Romania. What the teacher with artistic specializations needs to know and to accomplish in school, and from what perspective he can have a favourable and efficient intervention in the educational and communal space, these are some issues that we intend to analyze. In this sense it is necessary to adapt the content of the artistic university curriculum, because the educational and cultural policies of the nation must find ways to remain open to change of values in the context of a European integrated market and, at the same time, to sustain the wealth, the vitality and the diversity of one’s own culture. The crisis of the Romanian educational system is obvious and, although it proposes a real intercultural education in an intercultural school by initiatives and programs, it fails to be effective.
