How can one learn to research through art? How do you understand art-speak and converse like an experienced cultural professional?
The festival programme includes a small research guide to help budding artistic researchers get started.
There is some space for notes in the guide, but if you are an enthusiastic note-taker or doodler, you should bring your own notebook!
In addition to the research guide, the programme includes a compact vocabulary for the arts and culture sector. With its help, you will finally learn to understand high-culture art-speak that might otherwise seem incomprehensible.
If you wish, you can use the vocabulary right away when analyzing and interpreting the festival’s works to sound like a seasoned art expert!
The research guide is written by Salla-Maria Salo, dramaturg and lecturer in literary arts at Kucku University.
