Research Fontys Academy of the Arts

Research is developed in close collaboration with the professional field and aims to renew and improve the practices for which we educate. Research is organised within professorships and expertise centres.

The professorship Artistic Connective Practices explores how artists and artistic researchers can contribute to the transformation towards a sustainable and resilient society. This research takes shape through projects in neighbourhoods or healthcare settings, in cooperation with local organisations.

Research Catalogue is a powerful, non-commercial, and inclusive platform for artistic research, developed by the Society for Artistic Research in 2010.
It supports both self-published projects and peer-reviewed publications, bringing together academic reflection and artistic practice.

The platform is also used in education, for example in classes, assessments, and peer-review processes. It is the most widely used digital platform for artistic research worldwide.



Curiosity Cafe

The Curiosity Cafe is a space where people, art, and technology come together. This space can be used for jamming, experimenting, demonstrating, and inspiring, with the goal of expanding knowledge of technological possibilities within the arts.

It is a place to meet other curious people and explore the role of technology.
