Class Artistic Action and Research, Christin LahrArtistic Action and Research

About the Program

The class focuses on the extended art practice that addresses the fluid boundaries between art, science, technology, politics and society. It explores artistic and curatorial action, art and sustainability, and art and life/survival. In the class, materials, media, formats, conceptualizations, terms and definitions or artistic strategies are negotiated as well as systemic questions about the social relevance of artistic action. Based on students' particular artistic questions and practices, current discourses are examined in the context of their social, medial and socio-political framework and realities. The class works multi-, inter- and transmedially, interdisciplinary, cross-genre and undisciplined, with appreciation of ephemeral, fragile, accidental or even everyday moments. It utilizes the full range of materialities, media manifestations, modes of expression and strategies between analog and digital, physical and virtual worlds. The focus is on the 'impact character' of art and its potential to show possibilities, raise questions, initiate processes, set sustainable impulses and produce a viral web of relationships.
