A conversation about Studio Conversations
(2023)
author(s): VIS – Nordic Journal for Artistic Research
published in: VIS - Nordic Journal for Artistic Research
Filmed conversation between Gunhild Mathea Husvik-Olaussen, co-editor of issue #10, and Andrew Hardwidge, Chrysa Parkinson and Frank Bock, authors of “Studio Conversations”. During this conversation, the editor interweaves the essence of "Studio Conversations" with the overarching theme of "Circulating Practices." Through this talk, you'll get an insight into "Studio Conversations," a research project focused on ways of asking contemporary dance artists about the practices, working and knowing happening in their dancing. "Studio Conversations” was originally intended to be published as an exposition in VIS. In recognition of the project's specific approach, we decided in dialogue with the authors to depart from the conventional exposition format. Instead, we've chosen to present Studio Conversations as a video conversation. This decision stems from our commitment to presenting artistic research in a way that best reflects the purpose of the project and the vision of its creators. The discussion was filmed on Stockholm University of the Arts (SKH) premises at Filmhuset on 29 September 2023.
