Veranstaltung in englischer Sprache
Universitaeten sind Orte der Forschung und Lehre.
Und manchmal sind sie auch Orte kuenstlerischer
Praxis. Das Symposium »Degrees of Freedom. Art
Programs at Universities« erforscht, welche Rolle
und welches Potenzial Kunstprogramme an
Universitaeten sowohl fuer Kuenstler/innen als
auch fuer die Universitaeten selbst haben.
Expert/innen aus verschiedenen Bereichen und
Kontexten diskutieren Beispiele bereits
existierender Programme und die Erfahrungen, die
daraus in den verschiedenen Laendern gewonnen
werden konnten. Ein besonderer Fokus wird dabei
auf den unterschiedlichen Weisen liegen, mit
denen die kuenstlerische Praxis in universitaere
Strukturen integriert ist. Das Symposium fragt,
wie Universitaeten kuenstlerische Arbeit foerdern
und wie Kuenstler/innen vom universitaeren Umfeld
profitieren koennen. Außerdem wird diskutiert
werden, welche Rolle kuenstlerische Praxis in den
Universitaeten einnimmt. Zudem soll das
Potenzial, das fuer Forschungs- und
Lehreinrichtungen in der Kunst liegt, erforscht
werden.
Das Symposium »Degrees of Freedom« ist der
Startschuss fuer das neue »Leuphana Arts Program«
(LAP), durch das die Leuphana Universitaet
Lueneburg in den naechsten Jahren Kuenstler/innen
in die Universitaet bringen wird.

Symposium will be held in english.
Universities are sites of research and of
teaching. They are sometimes also home to
artistic practice. The symposium »Degrees of
Freedom. Art Programs at Universities« explores
the roles and potentials of art programs at
universities, both for artists and for the
universities themselves.
Experts from different fields and institutional
contexts discuss historical examples of specific
programs, experiences and incidents from
different countries. A particular focus will be
placed on the different ways in which artistic
practice is integrated into university
structures. Firstly, the symposium asks how
universities can foster and support artistic work
and how artists can best benefit from the
university setting. Secondly, we will discuss the
role of artistic practice in the university and
explore the potential of art practice for a
research and teaching institution. Thirdly, we
will be looking at concepts like agency,
knowledge, creativity, etc., and debate how their
different connotations in art, science, research
and teaching can be brought into a fruitful
dialogue.
The symposium »Degrees of Freedom« will prepare
and inaugurate the new »Leuphana Arts Program«
(LAP) through which Leuphana University will, in
the coming years, bring artists into the
university. The work of artists is based on forms
of querying, searching and exploring, which are
comparable to scientific research, even if they
don't subscribe to the same expectations about
objectivity and truth. Artistic research is aimed
at strategically broadening and deepening
knowledge that is not ancillary to an individual
project, but that forms an integral part of an
artistic practice. In dialogue with scientific
partners, artistic research can spark important
innovative impulses for the sciences by
systematically questioning their thematic,
methodological and epistemological preconceptions.
The relationship between art, science, and the
humanities is not new, but has been evolving, in
its modern Western form, ever since the
Renaissance. However, the conditions under which
the dialogue between these different fields takes
place have changed dramatically over the past
century. It is therefore timely to investigate
how new feedback mechanisms might be constructed
through which emerging forms of knowledge and
creativity in the arts or in the sciences can be
brought to bear on each other. At the same time,
the changes that we can observe may make it
necessary for institutions - like universities
and art schools - to transform and reinvent
themselves.
The Leuphana Arts Program serves to integrate art
into the university as a practice, as a form of
knowledge and a form of discourse. It focuses on
the development of artistic projects and supports
them in the interdisciplinary environment of the
university. The impulses for the evolving
interdisciplinary dialogues come from the artists
who are regarded not as mere »innovative
disruptors«, but as researchers and developers in
their own right.
LAP seeks to create friction and energy between
the different areas of artistic, scientific, and
social practice. It is a laboratory, a site for
people working in the crossover zones of artistic
production. Its work is oriented towards open
processes rather than towards finished products.
The symposium will address the university as a
context for artistic exploration.
