Summary/Abstract: The author writes about the necessary changes in the aims and methods of arts education (understanding arts in the widest sense, including all creative arts, literature and music) that are brought about by the changes of the role and function of art in contemporary society. In a postmodern environment, the significance of certain values increases. Trencsényi refers to these values as the five C’s: Creativity, Complexity, Community, Communication and Canonlessness (i.e.: instead of one prevailing canon, having multiple canons alongside each other).
