Lunch seminar in presence
Martin Piber (University of Innsbruck, Austria)
Abstract: The seminar will address the specific features of management and evaluation in the arts and cultural sector. Especially, the limited relevance of management theories in the area will be addressed and further implications discussed. On the basis of two case studies, the key dimensions of management (strategizing, organizing, staffing & directing and monitoring & controlling) in cultural organizations are reviewed. First, the MuseumsQuartier in Vienna serves as an example about different paths of strategizing. Strategy will be outlined as an oscillation between strategic targets and visionary practices. Second, the example of the European Capitals of Culture will exemplify the challenges and limitations of evaluations in the sector. Hereby, the role of various stakeholders and their impact will be highlighted. Finally, an outlook also with reference to new technologies and an aesthetic understanding of evaluation is given.
