1st Call for the submission of production and research projects in the arts within the framework of the Experimental Research Center of the Faculty of Arts and Design of the University of Córdoba Province.
Rules of Call
The Center for Experimental Studies of the Faculty of Arts and Design (CEEFAD) of the Provincial University of Córdoba (UPC) opens a call for production and research projects in Art Limb0 2023-2024. Limb0 is a space that invites artist-researchers to address the development of the production and research process in the institutional spaces of FAD-UPC.
reasoning
Art creation and practice require entry into specific research processes, university systems, following the logic of hard and social sciences, tend to separate from production, like two watertight boxes. Over the past few decades, we have noticed a growing academic interest in establishing debates around the relationship between artistic production and research at the global level, especially in our country. This translates into various institutional policies, calls, funding, grants, research and scientific publications.
In this context, the Faculty of Art and Design of the Provincial University of Córdoba aims to collaborate with the development and strengthening of the educational offer linked to various artistic languages, their intersections and interdisciplinary, experimental and process approaches. Joint0 Along these lines, the call of the Center for Experimental Studies seeks to create a space that encourages artistic production and research, its intersections, co-creation, diversity and experimental development. Therefore, CEEFAD proposes to expand specific disciplinary fields to create new training/research spaces in the public university.
goals
Facilitating a platform for promoting production and research projects in the arts.
Encourage spaces for dialogue based on experimentation and interdisciplinary production in the arts

Thematic Line: Crossings, Transdisciplinarity and the Limits of the Arts:
In this first call, the following theme line is defined: “Shortcuts, Discipline and the Arts at Limits.” It establishes cross-cutting events of discussion, exchange, dissemination and popularization of science on topics emerging from practices and processes of art creation. It seeks to promote experimentation in the arts, taking into account the many intersections that foster borrowings, appropriations, contaminations between technical and methodological practices, and betting on the place of science that emerges in the coexistence of our practices. A space for dialogue between the arts, a cross-section between science and technology, an open collaboration laboratory, considering art creation as multi-system.
