Call for applications now open - MPECV MASTER IN PERFORMING ARTS PRACTICE AND VISUAL CULTURE Application deadline: July 11 Online application A project by ARTEA, offered by the University of Castilla-La Mancha in collaboration with Reina Sofía Museum, La Casa Encendida, RESAD, Azala-espacio de creación and Teatro Pradillo. practicaescenicayculturavisual@gmail arte-a.org/en/node/139The MA in Performing Arts Practice and Visual Culture offers a context of practice-based research where to experiment, develop projects and to discuss and question the relationship between theory and practice, as well as to critically reflect on it. It is proposed as a space for artists and researchers who would like to develop new working strategies through collaboration. With a very broad and expanded conception of the performing arts practices, this MA promotes collaboration and self-organization among participants and proposes tools for the development of methodologies and theoretical critical discourses. It questions, reveals and amplifies the modes in which currently meaning is generated throug a variety of formats such as laboratories, seminars, workshops or reading and discussion groups. Our transdisciplinary program of study offers the participant the acquisition of specific competences in their respective fields of research and work and facilitates their insertion in the artistic community by explicitely favouring encounters with artists, researchers, curators and other invited professionals. It constitutes an ideal context for people with experience or education in theatre, dance, performance art, visual arts, music, architecture, art history, cultural studies, cultural management and related areas who wish to engage in practice-based and collaborative research projects. The MPECV is project by ARTEA, offered by the University of Castilla-La Mancha in collaboration with Reina Sofía Museum, La Casa Encendida, RESAD, Azala-espacio de creación and Teatro Pradillo. Study program The MPECV is an open program that is devised anew every year according to the ideas, experiences and proposals of the participants, be they students, teachers, mentors, coordinator or collaborating institutions. Every course is restructured and re-thought, although maintaining a series of axes organizing the work of all those implicated. Methodologies for artistic research We propose a very wide understanding of performance practice, one that integrates working procedures from other areas of creation and that is enriched through contamination and bonding with other practices. Because of this we are interested in each group including participants from a diverse range of creative fields (visual arts, architecture, performing arts) and research fields (humanities, philology, philosophy), so that the approaches to making and the assumptions of each area of knowledge can be challenged, put into question, and enriched through dialogue with other areas. The program is situated in the terrain of confluence between theory and practice. These are not conceived as opposites, but rather as different dimensions or methodologies of the same continuity of research. It doesn’t seem interesting to us to trace a clear frontier, but rather to develop a wide series of activities that cannot be ascribed to just one of the two concepts but which cross both, to greater or lesser extents. They are not treated as two opposite areas, but rather as two territories that cross and feed each other mutually.Collaborations and exchanges The MPECV proposes a porous form of situating itself in the city of Madrid. Over the years it has established collaborations of diverse kinds with institutions and centers of contemporary art, festivals and research groups, in such a way that various modules of the program have benefited in many cases from this preexisting offer.
