Research activity
The University of Barcelona is a leader in university research in Spain and the Faculty of Fine Arts provides quality and prestigious research through the work of the teaching and research staff in several consolidated research groups and participation in numerous state and European research projects.
The concept 'artistic research' expresses the intimate connection between art and research in the work of university-trained artists and is established at the basis of our research experiences related to the disciplinary foundation of the arts.
From our projects and research groups, we explore alternatives that go beyond the notion of 'scientific research', so that rigor and exigency are not excluded from the inquiry about processes linked to different forms of experience from which knowledge can also derive.
