The Summer Academy provides a supportive setting where artist-researchers (PhD candidates, Doctoral candidates or research fellows in artistic research) from all fields collaborate, present their on-going artistic work and research and receive feedback from experienced tutors and peers from leading academic institutions. The summer academy aims to reflect the international diversity and scope of artistic research and to provide a stimulating intellectual environment. It seeks to clarify, discuss and develop further emerging themes and issues arising out of the individual fellowship projects of the participants within the framework of artistic research.
NARP will organize the Summer Academy for Artistic Research, SAAR 2016. We are also pleased to announce that the Faculty of Fine Arts in Tromsø will host the event at the Academy of Contemporary Art and Creative Writing in the city center. Grønnegata 1, 9008 Tromsø.
Each country or collaborating university decides how to select the research fellows. If there are more candidates that want to participate than what we can provide space for, we will keep a waiting list.
The number of research fellows is limited to 16:
Finland: 8
Sweden: 4
Norway: 4
NARP have foreseen the same number of participating supervisors as last year:
Finland: 3–4
Sweden: 2–3
Norway: 2–3
