Perspectives on Artistic Research

Within the framework of the international conference Unframing Knowledge: Artistic Research Beyond Theory and Practice, Domenico Quaranta participates in the roundtable Perspectives on Artistic Research, a discussion dedicated to the current challenges, methodologies, and institutional trajectories of the field. Bringing together scholars, artists, and educators from leading Italian art academies, the roundtable reflects on the evolving relationship between artistic practice, knowledge production, and higher education. Drawing on his longstanding work on digital cultures and contemporary art, Quaranta offers a critical perspective on the role of technological transformations in reshaping artistic inquiry. His contribution examines how digital media, networked environments, and emerging forms of cultural production challenge traditional distinctions between theory and practice, as well as between artistic creation and scholarly investigation, while opening new possibilities for the dissemination and public visibility of artistic research.
