Florian Cramer, Miriam Rasch, Harma Staal and Ties van de Werff are organizing the second in a three-part workshop series on ethical questions among students and researchers.

This second workshop on ethical questions within artistic research will take place on Friday, 3rd October, in Maastricht, organized in collaboration with the research departments of Willem de Kooning Academy Rotterdam and Academy of Arts Maastricht/MERIAN, with support from Platform Kunst ≈ Onderzoek. This workshop is especially for researchers (lectors, PD/PhD-candidates, teacher-researchers, MA-students).

After the first workshop, which focused on problematic attitudes learned in art education, the second workshop will engage with current themes in art and design that require ethical sensitivity and carefulness of the artistic researcher, including:

▪ identity and social/cultural marginalization

▪ trauma and (political) violence

▪ more-than-human ecologies

▪ artificial intelligence and human/machine interaction

▪ other themes brought in by the participants

The workshops will form the basis for a poster that can be folded into a zine, that will be distributed to all participants and others who are interested.

Date: Friday 3 October 2025

Time: 12.00 – 17.00 hours

Place: Maastricht (specific location tbc)

More information and program will follow soon. You can sign up for the workshop here.
