Invitation October issue launch

Dear enthusiasts of research in the arts,

We want to extend a warm welcome for the launch of the new FORUM+ issue on 17 October 2025 in “Witte Zaal” at Royal Conservatoire Antwerp from 1.30 to 4.00 pm. In collaboration with ARIA, FORUM+ will present an interactive experience to celebrate this new edition and its 10th anniversary in current form. To stay close to the issue’s contents, we invited the following October issue authors to present their contribution in a creative way:

+ introduction by co-editor-in-chief Falk Hübner
+ workshop by Lies Vandeburie (contribution "Never too old to make a scene")
+ video intervention by Pau Catà (contribution "Walking the unmapped")
+ workshop by Danae Theodoridou (contribution "Moving between artistic research, cultural institutions, and community building")
+ hybrid interview between reviewer Falk Hübner and author of Reclaiming Artistic Research Lucy Cotter (review “On diversity and singularity in artistic research”) 
+ concluding remarks by members of the editorial office Assia Bert and Elisa Seghers

At 1.00 pm, you can enjoy the concert 'KENOSPHERA' by Tomer Damsky & The Quantum Choir in the "Witte Zaal". Afterwards the FORUM+ launch, also in "Witte Zaal", you are invited to stay a while longer for a pleasant chat and raise a glass with us to our new publication at "Witte Foyer".

We very much look forward to this pleasant gathering in October, 

The editorial team of FORUM+
