Crystal Room - Artistic Research residencies at GAK project space.

In the course of an in-depth inquiry into their artistic research projects, candidates of the Binational PhD Program of HfK Bremen share specific parts of their projects during a series of residencies at the GAK project space. Candidates will experiment with and center on a particular aspect of their research, focusing on a salient fraction, a minuscule detail or a striking sensation by zooming in.

The residencies curate a wide range of artistic articulations that encompass installations, displays of processes, discussions, lectures, performances and concerts.

During the duration of the residencies, PhD candidates will diffract their investigations from the Amorphous early stages of the crystals to the Crystallization of ideas and of phenomena.
