On October 2, I will be giving a lecture on the current state of artistic research in perfumery as an art form. My lecture will focus on theoretical possibilities and practical limitations in art historical research, focusing on scent as a medium.
“On this day, in cooperation with the Artistic faculty, University of Gothenburg, we'll take the entire artistic research process into considerat, and will discuss documentation of research seen in a greater perspective: In what ways can you as a researcher place yourself in a larger context and relate to the work of other researchers? And what in your own research process do you need to preserve for someone else to be able to continue working on your research question?
The symposium is aimed at doctoral students and researchers, and combines presentations and discussions of concrete exampels. When you apply to attend, please include a brief abstract of your research, and mention ways in which you could connect your work to previous research, and how other researchers might be able to tie in with your work.
Non-research personel is also welcome to the symposium, although a majority of the seats will be researved for researchers. If you want to take part in the symposium as a representative from research support, please use your abstract to comment on a research project you have come into touch with with, and how they related to a research context and/or worked with documentation for the benefit of other researchers.”
