More about the book

About the book

Artistic research is still a relatively new field and therefor the publication of this anthology constitues a significant moment. This volume presents an abundance of approaches to artistic research and demonstrates the breadth and variety of such research. It does so from the viewpoint of several disciplines, encompassing the performing arts, dance, voice work, fine art, drawing, film, video, architecture and philosophy.

The book in your hands presents some of the work that emerged from Study Circle 7: Artistic Research - Strategies for Embodiment (2010-2012), under the auspices of the Nordic Summer University (NSU). This volume presents a natural progression from the first Study Circle 7 (2007-2009) and the resultant anthology: At the Intersection Between Art and Research: Practice Based Research in the Performing Arts (2010).

It is often asserted that the body shapes all aspects of cognition. The arts, more than any other field of human knowledge, question and challenge the idea of a separation of body and mind. Embodiment is the thread that runs through the contributions to this anthology. To research one's own artistic process while in the midst of it - as many contributors have done here - demands cognizance of the body; one's own and that of others.

The work of the Study Circle was framed by an engagement with various aspects of the body's role in artistic work and research. The contributions reflect the spirit in which the deliberations of the Study Circle were conducted, one characterized by a generous exchange of ideas and a willingness to challenge definitions and transcend borders.
