SAR Special Interest Group for Language-based Artistic Research | Convocation III

Call for Contributions
The focus of Convocation III is on the sharing of language-based artistic research practices — accordingly contributions need to be "language-based"; "artistic research" and focused on the sharing of "practices".
- Participatory Practice Sharing (duration: 30–90 minutes)
- an experiential encounter with the live unfolding of a practice — we invite diverse forms of sharing that could be participatory, exploratory, experimental, speculative.
- Performative Practice Sharing (duration: 20 minutes max)
- a performative encounter or sharing of a practice — we invite you to test and to try something out with a peer-audience, rather than presenting ‘ready-made’ performances as such.
- Glimpses (duration: 10 mins max)
- short sharings or presentations that give a flavour or offer a glimpse into a practice — we invite you to share/show/activate/expose a practice rather than presenting a power-point ‘about’.
The deadline for proposals is 23 February 2026.
More information is available on the call website.
