DFG-Centre for Advanced Studies Imaginaria of Force
Call: Denkwerkstatt 22.–29.11.2025 »in Landschaft denken. Begegnungen mit der Natur an der Schnittstelle von Kunst und Wissenschaft«, Buchnerhof, Leifers
27 January 2025
The CAS »Imaginarien der Kraft« (UHH) invites applications for the Denkwerkstatt »in Landschaft denken. Begegnungen mit der Natur an der Schnittstelle von Kunst und Wissenschaft«, which will take place from November 22 to 29, 2025 at the Buchnerhof (Leifers).
The consequences of climate change and the use of renewable energy sources to shape the landscape are changing our perspectives on the environment and nature. Landscape is increasingly at the centre of public debate. But the term 'landscape' is not unambiguous. Against this background, the Denkwerkstatt is dedicated to the question of how 'landscape' can be rethought in a dialogue between art and science. Landscape is to be understood as a dynamic structure of relations, perceptions and practices. The Denkwerkstatt invites PhD students, postdocs and artists to work together in interdisciplinary formats – from lectures and discussions to artistic interventions and walks – to develop new perspectives on landscape.
Interested PhD students, postdocs and artists should apply by March 24, 2025 with a brief CV and a convincing abstract (max. 3,500 characters) on planned individual presentations or session designs (submission as a team is also possible). Please send your application to: franca.buss@uni-hamburg.de.
