Link to all abstractsIn recent years, the debate about artistic research has centred on the methodologies, institutionalization and formative potential of these potentially “deviant practices.” On the other hand, several changes in the philosophy of science and economics have been examined as factors shaping the current state of artistic research within the art academy. A look at fragments from this debate brings our concerns into the future. How do we want to learn and unlearn with our refined tools? Should artistic research be taught from the centre of the art academy, or from its edges, corridors and cellars? The symposium aims to critically examine the interface between artistic research and educational practices in Poland and ask questions about relevance and responsibility in connection with artistic research, understood as a working method, an educational strategy, and a mode of production of art. It also provides a platform for the exchange of educational experiences with and about artistic research within academia and art institutions.
