What does it
mean to conduct artistic research today? This exposition of artistic-research work is an invitation to reflect on the present
through the prism of current artistic research. Situated in-between provocation and reflection, the exhibition and the series
of public lecture-performances and lectures give insight into the diversity of topics, methods, perspectives, and discursive
and display strategies afforded by artistic research.
What are the limitations and hazards of such intermingling,
and what becomes generative and fecund in these contact zones? To discuss these questions together with the artist-researchers,
this four-day event extends an invitation to be present and join the PhD in Art program in discussing the exhibition and presentations
of the current state of the PhD in Art projects. Reflecting on the candidates’ artistic work together with the audience, on
the practices, modes and methods of research and critical analysis, four renowned international guest critics will contribute
from their perspective and give insight into their own work in the field.Teilnehmer*innen: Tamara
