"Dissenting Knowledges" consists of a multi-day retreat to be held in summer 2023 at Gutshof Sauen, UdK’s conference cottage. Ten academics and artists from the Ruskin School of Art and the Berlin University of the Arts as well as advanced students will participate in the project, which will deepen intersectional perspectives on radical knowledge production and documentation. By sharing contrasting methodologies and sensory approaches to archival production, the group will approach the key research questions:

1. Can academic conceptions of the archive as a material site account for formations of knowledge that are dispersed, embodied or ephemeral?

2. What are the most productive means for disseminating, teaching and documenting intersectional modes of knowledge production (e.g. LGBTQ+, decolonial, feminist approaches)?

3. What can be learned through the sharing of aesthetic-scientific approaches between two art schools in comparable but differing contexts? Through a series of innovative workshops designed by participants. The key outcomes of this transdisciplinary project will be an experimental textual-visual publication (website/zine) in which critical methodologies are shared, as well as reflections upon the learnings and novel approaches developed during the residency.
