“Reasoning through Art:\u00a0The Articulation of Embodied Knowledge”
\nby Professor\u00a0Henk Borgdorff (Royal Conservatoire\u00a0\/ University of the Arts, The Hague)<\/b><\/p>\n

This seminar starts\u00a0by asking whether research by artists, so-called artistic research, is equivalent to other forms of\u00a0academic research. Artists in their research often make use of insights, methods and techniques, which stem from social science, humanities or technological research, but it is not clear what artistic research itself has to offer to academia. Prof Borgdorff\u00a0will develop a positive understanding of research in and through the arts, touching upon its epistemology and methodology, and addressing the form and relevance of its outcomes. He will point to four related issues that are pertinent to research in and through art: an advanced understanding of discursivity and reasoning; the methodological relevance of material practices and things; innovative ways of publishing art in academia; and advanced forms of peer review. For Prof Borgdorff, it is\u00a0key to the advancement of the artistic research field that we not only advertise and export our epistemological and methodological distinctiveness, but that we also join forces with others in our attempt to re-think academia.<\/p>\n

Henk Borgdorff is a philosopher and music theorist who\u00a0is a Professor (\u2018lector\u2019) of Research in the Arts at the\u00a0Royal Conservatoire\u00a0\/ University of the Arts, The Hague (The Netherlands).
