Berliner Programm Künstlerische Forschung

In cooperation with Berlin Artistic Research Program

What does artistic research do when it resists the impulse to explain itself? What happens when we step away from definitions and instead dwell in the spaces where research unfolds — affective, embodied, speculative, and shared?
This first iteration of the Artistic Research Festival unfolds through contributions from the artistic research community of the Berliner Programm Künstlerische Forschung. Over several days and across venues, it intertwines the methodologies, trajectories and artistic forms that shape the fellows’ practices. Join us at SİNEMA TRANSTOPIA for a special screening at the intersection of moving image culture, performance and artistic research. (KF)

The Berlin Artistic Research Program supports artists across disciplines through fellowships, production funding, and a research community that fosters exchange among the participants. Public programming — including insights into the funded projects — further contributes to debates in and around the field of artistic research, extending this community to wider audiences and advocating for an on-going unfolding of practices and forms. The Berlin Artistic Research Programme was launched in 2020 by the Society for Artistic Research in Germany (gkfd) and is funded by the Berlin Senate Department for Culture and Europe.
