UdK Award For Interdisciplinary Art And Science
Posted: Thu, 04 Mar 2010 07:57:00 +0000The Berlin University of the Arts (UdK) is one of the biggest, most traditional institutions of advanced artistic education in the world. It has the right to award doctorates and post-doctoral lecturing qualifications and offers more than 40 study courses covering the full spectrum of the arts and related academic fields. Art and science are moving towards one another, discovering common issues and working methods. The creative, imaginative processes in the arts and sciences are similar, whereas the concrete realisation of their results tends to differ. Repeatedly, this difference is the source of productive tension and areas of friction. In all disciplines of the arts and sciences, further developments over recent decades have been characterised by mutual influences and efforts at differentiation. Today, traditional dividing lines between the spheres can no longer be maintained; they are being newly defined and presented in their permeability. This international competition aims to give the impetus and opportunity to artists ( fine art, media, architecture, design, music, theatre, visual communication etc. ) and scientists to work between the priorities of the arts or between the arts and science.
