Summary/Abstract: In this article, the changes of the principles of teaching art in the 20th century are discussed.The artist’s path from producing objects to conducting sensory experiences, from producingrepresentations of reality to taking an active part in the construction of reality, was reflectedin the process of educational transformation. New art practices grounded in communicativefeatures, interaction, collaboration, do not tend to make a material work as a final product,but they act in the area of the invisible. In the new conditions of the neo-liberal economy, theartist’s abilities, based on language and developed owing to pedagogical innovations in theart academies and university departments, are at risk of becoming a product of a new type,a valuable resource of creative economy, while counteraction determines new challenges foreducation.
