The Postresearch Condition
<https://www.hku.nl/en/study-at-hku/hku-college/pre-phd-programme/the-postresearch-condition>
Proposition
After an omnipresent “Research Decade,” the concept of artistic research
currently seems to be in need of a recharge. Pressing questions are:
Should we talk about a postresearch situation or a postresearch
condition? Could this be compared with how poststructuralism relates to
structuralism as its philosophical comprehension and the elaboration of
its consequences? And how could a postresearch condition address
contemporary art practices?
To answer these questions, it is important to start from the three
conceptual spaces that fundamentally determine what we mean by research:
/creative practice/ (experimentality, art making, potential of the
sensible); /artistic thinking/ (open-ended, speculative, associative,
non-linear, haunting, thinking differently); and /curatorial strategies/
(topical modes of political imagination, transformational spaces for
encounters, reflection and dissemination) – and to comprehend these
spaces in their mutual, dynamic coherence as a series of indirect
triangular relationships.
From whatever conceptual space one departs, an artistic research
practice could signify a transversal constellation – as a creative
proposition for thought in action. Yet, that mode of research could
never be reduced to a method of one of the three constituents. Thus,
artistic research cannot be equated with creative innovation,
disciplinary knowledge production, or political activism. It seems
urgent now – and this is the starting point of this conference – to
profoundly challenge and question the issue of how to articulate and
present the condition of the intersection between the three conceptual
spaces. For this purpose, an intensive program of workshops,
presentations, propositions, screenings, and publications has been
developed.
