In recent years, the question of mediation has played an increasingly important role in the arts, cultural institutions, and the corresponding fields of researching and teaching. Mediation can be pedagogical, political, cross-disciplinary and cross-media, intertwining, reconciling and culturally effective, etc. The symposium Building Bridges: Collecting, Researching and Mediating the Performing Arts, will gather representatives of the performing arts, theatre and dance researchers, archivists, librarians and curators to discuss what connects us: the shared passion and curatorial or scientific curiosity about the performing arts in all their facets – present and historical.
The notion of “building bridges” forms the dramaturgical framework of the symposium.
Chris Van Goethem and Stefan Gräbener presented and explained the upcoming phase 2 of the CANON project during the poster presentation and in personal discussions.
