Practices of Experimentation: Research and Teaching in the Arts Today, Hardback Book

Practices of Experimentation: Research and Teaching in the Arts Today Hardback

Edited by Zurich University of the Arts Department of Art & Media

Hardback

Description

Practices of experimentation lie at the heart of creative research and teaching in higher education in arts.

The Department of Art & Media at Zurich University of the Arts offers a unique teaching and research environment as a laboratory of converging and diverging practices of experimentation.

Its Bachelor and Master's programs are supported by two research institutes within the department, the Institute for Contemporary Art Research (IFCAR) and the Institute for Critical Theory (ith).

Practices of Experimentation investigates how the different fields of fine arts, photography, media arts and theory interlace with each other, inspire and differentiate one and another.

The book presents 15 positions in text, image, video and sound by theorists and artists.

They enquire how practices of experimentation constitute one of the most advanced approaches to research and teaching in arts worldwide. They ask how practices of experimentation are able to unfold, take position and enquire current discourses on artistic creation, the relation between art schools and society, the specific production of knowledge in the arts and the particularities of inter- and trans-disciplinary teaching and research in the arts.

Contains essays by Essays by Ute Meta Bauer, Maria Eichhorn, Knowbotic Research, Jorg Huber, Marianne Muller, Gerald Raunig, Nils Roller, Richard Wentworth.

With a foreword by Giaco Schiesser and Christoph Brunner.
