and PhD student at the FFA, BUT. These
are artists who have been associated with
art colleges in Brno, specifically with the
Faculty of Fine Arts of the BUT and the
Theatre Faculty of the JAMU. Through
interviews with the artists, the reader will
learn under what circumstances they began
to engage in artistic research, how they
perceive it, what meanings they attribute
to it and the purpose it serves for them.
The selected group of artists is very diverse
and their creative and research strategies
are different, as are the purposes for which
they use artistic research. The publication
does not aim to provide an exhaustive
overview of the methods used in artistic
research, but it does aim to show that there
are many approaches to artistic research
and to present the paths that have brought
particular artists to artistic research.
