4th Conference on Arts-based Research and Artistic Research 28.-30.6

4th Conference on Arts-based Research and Artistic Research

June 28-30, 2016, School of Arts, Design and Architecture, Aalto University, Helsinki, Finland

The themes of previous conferences range from intersections between arts and research to addressing what is considered artistic or arts-based research. The gatherings have helped develop vocabulary and concepts of arts-based and artistic research for researchers and students from all over the globe, and created a community of scholars interested in artistic or arts-based research and writing.

The theme of the 4th conference is:

 Rethinking arts-based and artistic research,

and global/local communities

Conference presenters and participants will engage with the question, “What is the relationship between arts-based and artistic research and communities?”  Topics may include arts-based and artistic research, and

  •   Diasporic movements and nation states or non-nation-states
  •   Belonging/not belonging to communities
  •   Voluntary or forced minority status
  •   Entrepreneurship, tourist industry, and local communities
  •   Diversified communities of scholarship
