dc.description.abstract | In this talk/performance, the presenters will explore researchcreation, a relatively new method of inquiry in Quebec
and Canadian universities. They will discuss how researchcreation may be informed by multiple approaches and
questions raised in the cultural and economic context of Montreal. What role do artists, artist run centers, the
university system and cultural institutions play in the development of researchcreation? How has it impacted artists'
knowledge in these domains? How is the work of artists valorized and supported through researchcreation? How
might one consider its progressive institutionalization and professionalization? Moving constantly between diverse
milieus, the presenters propose to trace the emergence of this field of experimentation and its contribution to
conditions of possibility in Montreal. | |
