Festival of Artistic Research: ARTikulationen 2023, 4-7 Oct 2023

We are pleased to announce our upcoming Festival of Artistic Research ARTikulationen 2023 – Researching Across. ARTikulationen interweaves in-depth presentations of very recent artistic research and findings, a festival character, and a mini-symposium – this year on matters of interdisciplinarity and interconnectedness of research practices with the (sound) environment, nature, and other living beings. The mini-symposium combines a keynote by composer Liza Lim, and a guest lecture by guitarist-researcher Stefan Östersjö, with a panel discussion in collaboration with ORF musikprotokoll, featuring composers Sandeep Bhagwati, Liza Lim, and Karen Power. Located at the Theater im Palais (TiP) of the University of Music and Performing Arts Graz (KUG), ARTikulationen is organised by the Doctoral School for Artistic Research (KWDS).

Over the course of 4 days you can hear, see, and discuss artistic research presentations from a large variety of fields ranging from current acoustic, electroacoustic, and computer composition, historically informed and contemporary performance, to social sculpture. There will be four Rigorosa (final doctoral presentations) by Janhavi Dhamankar, Susanne Scholz, Jessica Kaiser and Raimund Vogtenhuber, plus current research presentations and intermezzi presentations/performances by doctoral candidates Po-Yu Wang, Raphael Fusco, Melody Chua, Hugo Reis, Adela Liculescu, Zsófia Faragó, Helena Sorokina, Marlene Heiß, Zsombor Sidoo, Deok-Vin Lee, and Faidra Chafta Douka. The contributions are mostly in English. Click here for the programme overview.

ARTikulationen is a very discursive local event with ample time for questions and discussions.  Admission is free. The event takes place mainly at Theater im Palais, Leonhardstraße 19, 8010 Graz, with links to live-streamed Rigorosa (viva voces) to appear on the webpage in due course. 

We hope you might enjoy the live-streams, and are looking forward to welcoming some of you in Graz very soon!
