CALL

We are happy to announce the 17th CA²RE conference under the topic AUTHORSHIPS. The conference is hosted by the PhD Program Architectural, Urban and Interior Design (AUID) and the Department of Architecture and Urban Studies (DAStU) at Politecnico di Milano. The events are organized in association with ARENA, EAAE and ELIA.

The Milan CA2RE Conference seeks to investigate possible forms of authorship vis-a-vis the contemporary knowledge production and dissemination within the design and artistic domains. We aim to question the role of the author and the sense of originality at present times when design and artistic research-based practices often experiment with different operating strategies. We welcome contributions reflecting on the techniques and the processual approaches involved in constructing specific narratives, aiming to affirm the roles and modes of authorship, by positioning them in the contemporary cultural contexts of design-driven and artistic research.

CALL FOR ABSTRACTS

We invite researchers and practitioners from diverse fields of Design-driven research at any stage and context to apply for presenting and discussing their projects at the event.
