Description: This book is about artistic research—what it is, or what it could be. And it is about the place that artistic research could have in academia, within the whole of academic research.Artistic research is an endeavour in which the artistic and the academic are connected. In this emerging field of research artistic practices contribute as research to what we know and understand, and academia opens its mind to forms of knowledge and understanding that are entwined with artistic practices.Henk Borgdorff also addresses how we comment on such issues, and how the things we say cause the practices involved to manifest themselves in specific ways, while also setting them into motion. In this sense, this work not only explores the phenomenon of artistic research in relation to academia, but it also engages with that relationship. This performative dimension of the book is interwoven with its constative and interpretive dimensions. Borgdorff’s aim is not only to advance knowledge and understanding of artistic research, but to further the development of this emerging field.“This book is the first to define, in concrete terms, the standards to which artistic research should conform. Well written and well argued, it will probably become a reference for many studies to come and required reading for anyone active in this field.”–Frans-Willem Korsten, Erasmus University Rotterdam and Leiden University, NetherlandsHenk Borgdorff is professor of Research in the Arts at the University of the Arts, The Hague, and visiting professor of Aesthetics at the Faculty of Fine, Applied and Performing Arts of the University of Gothenburg in Sweden.
