Inter-University Organization Arts & Knowledges
What happens at the interface between art and science? What happens when scientists and artists meet? The unique inter-university organisation Arts & Knowledges, a cooperation between the Paris Lodron University of Salzburg and the Mozarteum University Salzburg, explores these questions in a wide variety of formats and programs. In the deliberate combination of local and international perspectives, three thematic focus areas and a inter-university doctoral program contextualize contemporary social issues and bring them into interdisciplinary contexts.
From October 2024, Arts & Knowledges will start the new program area period, which is entitled “Cultures in Transformation”. Building on the successful concept of practiced methodological diversity, critical discourse and active engagement with current challenges, Science and Art will continue to develop and change: The aim of the three focus areas “Figurations of Transition”, “Society & Sustainability | Contemporary Arts and Cultural Production” and “InterMediation. Music – Effect – Analysis” is to open up to new forms of cooperation and formats of knowledge production and communication. Once again, joint creation and development are at the heart of Arts & Knowledges.
As of now, numerous events and activities are therefore taking place at Arts & Knowledges, where you can find out more about this opening and transformation and also get in touch with the respective focus areas.
The focus areas organize a diverse range of symposia, conferences and workshops, which are also open to the interested public.
In addition, they offer students of the Paris Lodron University and the Mozarteum University the opportunity to further their education in an interesting way at the interface of science and the arts in the form of two study supplements and a study focus.
The course offerings include the basic module “The Arts: Theory and Discourses” and the study supplements “The Arts: Practice and Mediation” and “Cultural Management & Cultural Production”, which together form the study focus “Arts, Culture and their Mediation.”
In October 2024, seven doctoral students will start at the doctoral college, which is co-financed by the state of Salzburg, under the motto “Cultures in Transformation”.
On this homepage you will find detailed and up-to-date information on the focus areas and the doctoral college, on their research foci and activities, as well as on the course offerings.
I cordially invite you to get to know and take advantage of the extensive offerings of the Interuniversity Organization Arts & Knowledges,
Thomas Ballhausen
