Editor: Gunhild Mathea Husvik-Olaussen.</strong></strong></strong></strong></p>
<p style="text-align: justify;"> The theme examines how the explosive power of touch connects micro- and macro-perspectives
    within artistic practice, and how alternative forms of touch may enable new artistic expressions. The theme highlights both the relationship between the artist, movement, and materiality, as well as contact with audiences and other actors.</p>
<p style="text-align: justify;">Multilingualism is encouraged and valued. VIS welcomes artistic research in which language choices have been carefully considered, and the solution that best serves the artistic practice and its accessibility has been selected. If multiple languages are
    used, a complete translation into one of the following languages must be provided: Swedish, Norwegian, Danish or English, so that the editorial committee can engage with the entire content.</p>

<div>&nbsp;</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;"><a href="http://www.arts.bg.ac.rs/en/" target="_blank">University of Arts in Belgrade</a> is organising a hybrid, scientific-artistic conference, “In from the margins – Sharing footnotes of subaltern knowledge and practices: Questioning North-South relations
    and ethics of international collaboration” in <strong>Belgrade from 26-28 June, 2023</strong>.&nbsp;</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">&nbsp;</div>
<div style="text-align: justify;">The global community of cultural activists, researchers, scholars, teachers, artists and cultural operators are invited to submit their ideas and abstracts for this conference, its workshops and other forms of presentations. The conference welcomes a
    broad range of contributions that go beyond classical academic papers, providing direct subaltern or activist perspectives (experiences, project proposals, art works, educational presentations and workshops, policy measures, etc). <strong>The <a href="https://cdn.ymaws.com/elia-artschools.org/resource/resmgr/carreers_center/Conference_Call_Shakin_FINAL.pdf" target="_blank">application</a> deadline is 1 April, 2023 (00h Central European Time).&nbsp;&nbsp;</strong>Read more about the conference <a href="https://cdn.ymaws.com/elia-artschools.org/resource/resmgr/carreers_center/Conference_Call_Shakin_FINAL.pdf" target="_blank">here</a>.&nbsp;</div>
    <div style="text-align: justify;">&nbsp;</div>
    <div style="text-align: justify;">Contemporary education within cultural, artistic and media field globally is mostly fed by Eurocentric dominant discourses and submitted to a classical epistemological framework, which silences multiple understandings of specific contexts, local knowledge-making
        systems and practices of cultural creation. Pedagogical, artistic and cultural practices whose methods are based on sensual, intuitive, interdisciplinary, open-ended and experimental practices traditionally get ignored in academic teaching.</div>
    <div style="text-align: justify;">&nbsp;</div>
        <div style="text-align: justify;"> The common representation of what knowledge is supposed to be, thus makes alternative or subaltern knowledge invisible and widens the gaps between mainstream, canonized knowledge construction and the more hidden, marginalized ways of producing
            knowledge.&nbsp;&nbsp;</div>
        <div style="text-align: justify;">&nbsp;<span style="text-align: left;">&nbsp;</span></div>
        <div style="text-align: justify;">This conference wants to challenge the dominant discourse on knowledge and open up discussion on other forms of knowing and sharing, that have been on the margins both within and between societies. We want to discuss ways of constructing, sharing,
            and using a plurality of knowledge, especially when educating new generations of culture and media professionals, with the desire to make cultural and media field more sensitive, plural, inclusive and just.&nbsp;&nbsp;</div>
        <div style="text-align: justify;">&nbsp;</div>
        <div style="text-align: justify;"><strong>The submission deadline is 1 April, 2023 (00h Central European Time) and the conference registration deadline is 20 May 2023.&nbsp;&nbsp;</strong></div>

In a time characterized by information overload and intensity, the familiar can become destabilized, mutated, shifted, and reformed.

A place where unknown contours of space, time, and matter can take immediate form only to dissolve and be inverted in new calibrations.&nbsp;</div><div>&nbsp;</div><div>How do we relate to the term reality? How do you, as an artistic researcher, work around concepts such as truth, falsity, origin, and imitation in a time of steadily changing flux? What role can manipulation play as a processual tool in artistic research?&nbsp;</div><div>&nbsp;</div><div>Can we unburden our self-censorship by using doubt and purposelessness as methods and material and/or theme during a research process? Simply allowing for the loss of control, for getting lost. Since some things might be easier done than said, actualized rather than conceptualized, we are curious about research projects that push experimentation as the protagonist. In that process, how do the remains, the leftovers, the debris of experimentations diffract as relevant material?

Nature has always been in the attention of artists, offering subjects for portrayal at the time when arts were mainly representational, providing a model for creation, being a source of inspiration, or standing as a value to be defended and protected against the nowadays global threats such as pollution or global warming. Deeply admired or thoroughly investigated, in the same time appropriated and transfigured in the act of creation, nature is today as relevant as always for visual arts. </span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span>The conference aims at looking at the multiplicity of ways in which artists involved nature in the artistic processes and their works. Possible topics could include: experimental creative researching natural or urban landscape, artist’s relationship with nature through interventions such as land art, scenarios of nature’s ruin and interpretations from an ecological perspective. </span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Papers presenting theoretical research results and presentations of artistic research are equally welcome. </span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span>The Conference language is English, and there is no conference fee. </span></p> <p style="text-align: justify;"><b><span>Deadline</span></b></p> <p style="text-align: justify;"><span>Send a short presentation of yourself and an abstract of no more than 300 words to <a href="mailto:maria.sarbu@e-uvt.ro">maria.sarbu@e-uvt.ro</a>.

In other words, what is it that we decide to remember, what do we ignore and what do we choose to forget?</p>

<p>The House of France in Rhodes is located in the medieval heart of the city of Rhodes. It welcomed knights who were passing through the island. In 1912, the House was bought by a French ambassador in Turkey who offered it to the French state. Today it hosts the Consular Agency of France.</p>
<p>Today the local production disappears in favor of copies of ceramics from Iznik or Ikaros. The tradition remains but the renewal of generations and the transmission of know-how are threatened. Local authorities are invested to preserve and valorize this intangible heritage; The French Ambassy brings its support. </p>
<p>This program encourages the crossover between the existing cultural heritage and the contemporary issues of ceramic art. The residency aims to offer to the artists a field of creation and experimentation in connection with the historical environment and the discovery of traditional know-how. </p>
<p>The three selected artists invited to Rhodes for a two-month residency are expected to establish working relationships between them, with the island's artistic circles as well as with local craftsmen. </p>
<p>The elaboration of ceramic works will be punctuated by learning traditional techniques from masters and artists and by meetings with local craftsmen. </p>
<p>This residency also aims to create links with contemporary artists from Rhodes. The invited artists will benefit from an artistic local network.</p>
<p>This residency program is addressed to artists, Greek and French artists as well as artists of the Mediterranean countries who wish to develop an artistic research project on contemporary ceramics.</p>
<p>Closing of the call for applications:&nbsp;<b>15th of June 2021 </b></p><p>
Selection and audition period:&nbsp;<b>22th -25th of June 2021 </b></p><p>
Final selection and announcement of results:&nbsp;<b>30th June 2021 
</b></p>
<p>Selected candidates by the selection committee will be contacted for a individual interview videoconference. The announcement of the selected candidates will be published on the website of the French Institute of Greece: <a href="https://www.ifg.gr/" target="_blank">www.ifg.gr</a></p>

<title>Theatre Conference JAMU 2021 </title>

This year´s topic is <b>The Ever-expanding Horizons of Theatre</b>.  </p>
<p>The conference will be held on <b>25-27 November 2021 </b>in Brno, Czech Republic, if need be the conference will have either hybrid or online format.  </p>
<p>The conference provides a platform on which different concepts of research in the field of theatre practice and theory can be contrasted. The event has been attended by over one hundred professional artists, researchers and doctoral students from Europe, Africa, North as well as South America and Asia who have come to Brno to introduce their research in progress to an international audience and discuss common methodological issues. </p>
<p>This year they would like to examine the ever-expanding and changing horizons of theatre as well as theatre research. In 2020, the idea of theatre outside the designated theatre building is nothing new, yet the academic viewpoint tends to focus on the purely dramaturgical and directional matters of such projects. Being an academy of performing arts, they would like to examine this phenomenon not only from the perspective of the changing thematic focus, but also from the view of theatre management, light and sound technology, or stage design. During the conference, they would like to bridge theatre practitioners and academics and offer a think tank, where everyone can share their opinion on the theatre horizons. They invite doctoral students as well as experienced theatre-makers. </p>
<p>For Call for Proposals and further information, please see the <a href="https://www.theatreconferencejamu.cz/en/call-for-proposals" target="_blank">website of the conference</a>. </p>
<p>The deadline for proposals is <b>15 May 2021</b>.  </p>
