Nora Landkammer

Nora Landkammer (*1983) is an art educator and researcher. She is a professor at the Department of Learning - Engagement - Research at the Institute of Art and Education, University of Art Linz. Her research and practice focuses on the analysis and development of educational practices and their institutions from a post/decolonial and intersectional perspective.

Trained as a teacher (Art/Spanish) and with a background in gallery education, Nora Landkammer was until 2019 deputy head of the Institute for Art Education at the Zurich University of the Arts, where she conducted research in projects such as TRACES - Transmitting Contentious Cultural Heritages with the Arts on educational approaches dealing with contentious heritage or Intertwining Histories of Arts Education on histories of learning in/through the arts in translocal perspectives. In her dissertation (Das Museum verlernen? [Unlearning the Museum?], Zaglossus, 2021) she analysed how educators in ethnographic museums deal with colonial heritage and its contemporary legacies. Methodologically, besides discourse analysis, action research is a key approach in her projects. She has been a lecturer in the MA in Art Education, Cultural Studies at the Zurich University of the Arts, a visiting professor at the Department of Art and Communicative Practices at the University of Applied Arts Vienna, a lecturer at the Institute for Art Education at the Academy of Fine Arts Vienna, and an interim professor for Art Education and Didactics at the Academy of Fine Arts Munich.
