In a conversation with Davis Simanis and Janis Ozolins, it was highlighted that higher education in art and culture is a space where creative practices, research, and exchange of ideas meet, fostering a thinking and critically minded society.
On Thursday, June 11, LSM published a conversation with Davis Simanis and Janis Ozolins about the significance and role of higher schools of art and culture in contemporary society. The discussion emphasized that higher education in art and culture is a space where creative practices, research work, and the exchange of ideas converge, contributing to the formation of a thoughtful and critically inclined society. While the full conversation may have covered various topics, the excerpt released by LSM focuses on this core idea: art and culture education is not merely about skill acquisition but serves as a foundation for a reflective and open society. Simanis and Ozolins, both experts in the field, shared their insights on how such education influences the cultural environment and society's overall intellectual capacity. The article invites readers to consider the role of these institutions not only within a narrow professional sphere but also in a broader social context.
