Tacit Knowledge offers an overview of the intricate artistic and educational practices that defined the early years of the California Institute of the Arts (CalArts). It emphasizes the conceptual and feminist strategies emerging from John Baldessari’s Post Studio class and Judy Chicago and Miriam Schapiro’s Feminist Art Program, initiated in 1970 and introduced to the school in 1971. The intersection of cognitive and (habitual) bodily knowledge forms characterizes both feminist and Post Studio practices, with the concept of tacit knowledge serving as a central theme that connects the various contributions. This experimental publication combines brief introductions, detailed case studies, and a wide array of documentary and photographic materials in a magazine format, fostering a rich and dynamic exploration of the ideas that influenced CalArts during its formative years. Annette Jael Lehmann, a professor of contemporary art, visual culture, and theater at the Freie Universität Berlin, brings her expertise to this collection, highlighting the significance of these artistic movements in shaping contemporary practices.
