Research

The ARTS project is based on research laboratories in the humanities and social sciences on the Lyon-Saint-Étienne site and aims to encourage and support the emergence of interdisciplinary scientific projects that may involve researchers in the field of science and engineering. One of the challenges is also to develop scientific collaborations with art college. At the launch of the project, the following laboratories are involved:

Eclla : Contemporary studies in literature, languages, arts
Ihrim : Institute for the history of representations and ideas in modern times
EVS : Environment city society
Lem-Cercor
Centre Max Weber
Triangle
Hisoma

In line with the objectives of the project, based on interdisciplinarity and the crossing of knowledge and practices, four scientific areas of reflection have been identified:

Theory and practice of making
Traces, memory, territories
Construction of knowledge, representations, transmission
Arts x Sciences

Within this scientific framework, three lines of research stand out in particular:

1) Art, childhood and territory

2) Inhabiting, founding, imagining

3) Innovation, training, research
