Fostering cultures of deep listening may be key for creating environments in which pursuing artistic research is not merely a matter of rehearsing methods, but an ethical engagement with actual social realities and relations, to which a researcher empathically bears witness. In the arts, research could indeed be seen as rooted in sensitivities that enable you read between lines, and sense what is yet unspoken, so it needs to be articulated via new artistic forms. What role can an art school play in supporting cultures of deep listening and practices of sensitive response in the field of artistic research?
Taci, anzi parla – be silent, or rather, speak – is what Italian cultural critic Carla Lonzi called her 1978 publication of countless observations she gathered during years of observing her cultural surroundings, and compiled in what she understood as the "Diary of a Feminist". Her work is one iconic example of the political power built into the switch from close listening to both courageous and joyous speech. If artistic research is to be understood as a form of engaged practice, what makes the time right for switching gears and go from deep listening to speaking out publicly, and involving audiences in confronting the concerns at the heart of the knowledge gathered, as well as the joy of sharing material experiences and drawing people into discussions?
