Abstract

The text summarizes and analyzes thirty years of international artistic research practice by sketching its paradoxes, problematics, voids and perspectives. And it puts forward a proposal with necessary strategies and the need to develop an epistemology for the future that allows artistic research to become a crucial practice far beyond the artistic research community and the art world only—a crucial practice for the whole society and its urgent demand for a new "aesthetics of existence".
