The Jāzeps Vītols Latvian Academy of Music in collaboration with the Latvian Academy of Culture, the Latvian Academy of Arts, the Institute of Literature, Folklore and Arts of the University of Latvia and the National Library of Latvia invites researchers, especially at the doctoral and post-doctoral level to take part at the international conference of artistic research in music, visual art, design, cinema, theatre, contemporary dance, and choreography. The conference is part of the project ‘Cultural Capital as a Resource for Sustainable Development of Latvia’ /CARD (No. VPP-KM-LKRVA-2020/1-0003) implemented within the framework of the National Research Programme ‘Latvian Culture – a Resource for National Development 2020-2022’ of the Ministry of Culture of the Republic of Latvia. Project is funded by the Latvian Council of Science.
At the centre of artistic research is practice, experience, imagination, and knowledge that create new understanding, discourse, and vision. Therefore, both objective analysis and subjective observation are relevant. Moreover, the dialogue between seeming contradictions and oppositions - intellectual and intuitive, conservative, and spontaneous, fixed and flowing, persistent and transient - becomes actual. The artistic research deliberately transcends boundaries that were previously considered strong and determined to create new collaborations and synergies. The aim of the conference is to share achievements in various fields of artistic research and to expand the knowledge base with innovative methodological approaches. It is important among artists of all kinds who want to develop their practice by thinking, working, exploring and self-realizing through its consequences, context, and potential. Thus, the potential participants of this conference are invited to submit proposals about different approaches, various experiences, methodologies, and creative synergies as well as to prepare for fruitful dialogue among researchers in various fields of art, identifying both the general and the specific.
The participation in the conference is free of charge.
The conference will take place in hybrid form, with both online and in-person participation. The conference language is English. The conference will feature state of the art presentations from a wide range of visual, media, and performing arts, music, design, craft, and hybrid disciplines.
Individual presentations : Forms for individual presentations are papers and lecture-recitals: A PAPER should present artistic research and be no longer than 20 minutes. A LECTURE-RECITAL will last 40 minutes, including at least 10 minutes of research introduction. The lecture-recitals will be included in music, audio-visual, choreography, and contemporary dance sections of the conference. The live performance or video is expected to be closely related to the contents of the research the participant is currently conducting. There will be an additional 10 minutes for questions and comments.
