The course is organized by the Norwegian national researcher training school TBLR – Text, Image, Sound, Space (University of Bergen, University of Stavanger, University of Agder, Norwegian University of Science and Technology, Trondheim, and University of Troms¿).

 

This interdisciplinary doctoral course aims at exploring the ways in which social and humanist sciences use and analyze empirical material and theorize about different aspects of materiality. Within this relatively broad framework, more specific focus will be placed on the following four topics:

 

-- Constructing collective memory through exposing and interpreting findings from the past, such as archaeological items, excavation sites, museums, exhibitions, archives.

-- The materiality of art: What art works are made of, how they are embedded in material environments, and how they reflect their own materiality.

-- The significance of the body in the production, performance and experience of art.

-- Metaperspectives: Aesthetical and philosophical reflections on art and cultureÕs material premises, forms and meanings.
