Research Week at Stockholm University of the Arts, 18-21 January 2022

Research Week 2022 is a premiere opportunity to catch up on all the wide-ranging artistic research taking place at Stockholm University of the Arts (SKH). Research Week shows off both research projects that are almost finalised – and new embryos of projects in unexpected constellations, that are being tested in front of an audience for the first time.

The event is fully online, free to attend and open to all audiences.
Research Week provides a unique opportunity for researchers, students and the interested general public to observe how new knowledge is produced at SKH, and to partake in projects that otherwise are just taking place in the different departments, explains Cecilia Roos, Vice-Rector of Research at SKH.

“For us at the Research Centre, Research Week acts as an important opportunity to connect researchers and see how their different areas can match and enrich each other,” says Cecilia Roos. “It’s especially exciting in 2022 that we’re seeing such a proliferation of cluster projects, many of which are being shown off for the first time, where researchers and co-researchers from different departments combine their varied practices to find new forms of artistic knowledge.”

During the first three days of Research Week 2022, a total of 19 research projects will be presented, with 35 researchers and co-researchers participating. Rounding out the conference, Friday 21 January sees a whole day of seminars and workshops tackling one of the most pressing issues of the moment: ethics in art and artistic research.
