There are many reasons why an individual practitioner might decide to undertake a PhD: a desire to uplift one’s practice, to contribute to the intellectual artistic climate, to teach, to pursue an academic career, or some combination of these, or other reasons.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe rise of artistic research or practice-based research is subtly transforming these disciplines. The integration of research into practice, however, has not always been smooth, and the transformations not unequivocally positive.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eFor this book we issued an open call to ask artists how PhD research has influenced their making and thinking. Our questions were: What are the impacts, urgency, and significance of the PhD for creative practitioners? How are these understood, captured, communicated? How did it change your practice? We even asked: should creative practitioners undertake a PhD in the first place?\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThrough its thirty contributions\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003e\u003cem\u003eThinking Back, Making Forward\u003c\/em\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003etackles these questions in an open way, to acknowledge, equally, the advantages and disadvantages of the creep of the PhD into artistic practice. At the same time, this book shows a wide range of possibilities of what research in artistic practice can entail.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Valiz","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50083644702959,"sku":null,"price":72.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0734\/3927\/files\/IMG_1346.jpg?v=1783050467","url":"https:\/\/www.perimeterbooks.com\/products\/thinking-back-making-forward-artistic-research-in-practice","provider":"Perimeter Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
