THEME

ELIA’s UAx Platform is proud to announce an online symposium Artistic Research and Beyond, organised in partnership with the Academy of Fine Arts in Prague, Lviv National Academy of Arts, A. V. Nezhdanova Odesa National Academy of Music, and Kharkiv I.P. Kotlyarevskyy National University of the Arts.

The online event spans four weeks from 14 November to 5 December 2023 at 15:00 CET (Prague time) / 16:00 EET (Kyiv time). The online event will feature four sessions, taking place each Tuesday, with experts from different art institutions in Ukraine, Austria, Belgium, the Netherlands, the Czech Republic and Sweden. Each session, lasting 1.5 to 2 hours, will be comprised of thematic presentations, followed by participant discussions to share experiences and pose questions.

The symposium aims to enhance doctoral programmes and artistic research practices in Ukraine. It acts as a platform for exchange of good practices around the crucial aspects of doctoral programmes, including admission processes, curriculum development, doctoral supervision, artistic project examples, preparation, presentation, defence, and international and inter-institutional cooperation.

The symposium will discuss international practices in two types of doctoral art studies:

  1. Doctoral programmes based on artistic practice (including artistic research), technological research and material research.
  2. Doctoral programmes grounded in theory and theoretical approaches to art and artistic research.

The online symposium is open to everyone involved in doctoral studies in higher arts education in Ukraine, namely doctoral supervisors, administrators, heads of doctoral programmes and (prospective) doctoral students.
