The course, taught by MAM Arts Policy professor Beth Bienvenu with assistance from Mathilde Speier, begins with an overview of U.S. and German arts policy, and meetings with arts organizations in the DC Metro area. Students will then fly to Berlin for two weeks to meet with the leaders of Germany’s top arts organizations. Students will compare American and German arts management and policy through interviews with arts leaders in both countries, focusing on the impact of funding and the government's role in promoting, defining, & censoring art. Site visits and interviews will be complemented by tours & performances in Berlin, where participants will have unparalleled access to Germany’s top museums, orchestras, opera companies, dance companies, theaters, funding agencies, and other organizations dedicated to supporting artists and building Berlin’s creative economy. The U.S. portion of the program takes place starting June 7 (class meetings will take place June 7, 14 and 18), and we will be in Berlin June 22 – July 5, 2008. The final project will be due July 17.
