The Academy of Creative and Performing Arts (ACPA) of Leiden University and Art Institute West Den Haag are pleased to announce their close collaboration in the second season of the public series In the Making. This series, dedicated to the practice of research in the arts, will consist of seven public sessions taking place on a monthly basis. Gabriel Paiuk is the curator of the series.
The articulation of art and research has a long and rich tradition that has grown in scope and relevance in the past few decades. ACPA has played a significant role in this process, as it is an internationally pioneering institution that enables artists to conduct research through their own practice in a University context. In the Making is meant to both present to the public the research carried out within ACPA as well as to foster a dialogue with a number of international actors from a variety of disciplines.
Artistic research makes the relationship between art and society permeable. Rather than bracketed in the private realm of the lone artist or the sometimes-isolated circuits of the art market, artistic research opens up its practice to the public domain. Its methods become part of collective process of exploration and re-imagining. In the Making aims to deepen a perspective which conceives of artistic practice not as the sole product of individual visionaries but as a collective endeavor embedded in society. It addresses the role of art in the construction of the present and the creation of possible futures.
