Call for applications for PhDArts, PhD programme in visual art and design
Research in and through artistic practice

Application Deadline:  October 31th, 2009 or April 30st, 2010

http://www.phdarts.eu/


PhDArts offers an international, high-level doctorate in visual arts
and design. Each doctoral course of study comprises individual
research as well as a doctoral study programme. An appropriate team
of supervisors and a suitable research environment is sought for each
doctoral candidate.

PhDArts is a collaboration between the Leiden University Academy of
Creative and Performing Arts and the Royal Academy of Art (KABK) in
The Hague. For parts of the PhD programme they also collaborate with
the Institute for Practice-Based Research in the Arts of the
K.U.Leuven.

In research in and through artistic practice, the concepts of
knowledge, meaning and sense are closely interwoven. The discursive,
verbal component of research is important in gaining insight into and
examining this knowledge. Research in art is characterized by
interaction with artistic practice: it is an inseparable part of the
work of the artist. With research in art (as opposed to research
about art, such as art history, for instance) there is no set goal or
expected result, any more than there are predetermined general
procedures. The outcome of the research is completely open. This
openness is a condition for conducting research in art and design.

The PhD student's research is the direct extension of his or her art
practice. The outcome is therefore an artistic product, combined with
a discursive product, the dissertation, which does justice to the
artistic one.

The doctoral study programme is supplemental to the supervision of
individual research. The programme consists of six half-day sessions
and two workshops, each lasting two weeks, per year.

The candidates are expected to attend the half-day sessions
throughout the entire duration of their doctoral study and to attend
at least four two-week seminars over the course of their doctoral
research period.

Admission and deadlines of application

Prospective PhD candidates can submit an application to the Leiden
University Academy of Creative and Performing Arts or the Royal
Academy of Arts (KABK) in The Hague.

The entrance examination comprises:

•	An assessment of the applicant's portfolio of work and research
dossier. These must be submitted before April 30th or October 31st.

•	A visit to a studio or exhibition and an interview. This takes
place in the months of June and January.

Applicants must have a Master's of Arts Degree or proof of study at a
comparable level. The final decision on admission rests with the
Leiden University, which will also award the PhD.
