Art of Research 2026 Conference – Voices,
25.-27.11.2026, Espoo, Finland – Deadline 15.03.2026, Registration opens on 15.05.2026
The ninth Art of Research conference will be held during 25-27 November 2026 at Aalto University, Espoo, Finland. The theme of the eighth Art of Research conference is “Voices”, addressing the various voices that constitute artistic research. As the conference reaches its 9th edition and 20 years since its founding, we are interested in exploring the research community in its entirety. The Art of Research conferences promote the continuous dialogue of research practices in art and design. The previous seven international conferences have contributed to the development of rapidly growing and spreading discourse on artistic and practice-led research. Over the two decades, the conferences have had a significant role in engaging in multiple notions of research where diverse modes of creative practice are used as catalysts for enquiry. The conference is organized by Aalto University School of Arts, Design and Architecture.
