Interdisciplinary Puppetry Modules for Art Universities - IPMAU
Pilot project for an innovative, modular, transdisciplinary and contemporary puppet theater training for art students.
The aim of the project is to open up art universities to the art form and the art form to transnational impulses at the intersections of performing and fine arts. Through mutual learning experiences of students, teachers and artists, the university and artistic exchange will be intensified and a dense network will be established, which will serve as a basis for the further development of the model.
The central element is the development and testing of a basic module as well as two focus modules that can be integrated into existing curricula of art colleges. As a first step, a list of thematic focal points will be compiled, on the basis of which the modules will be developed. Results and work of the students will be presented in public events. Through a video campaign and a concluding "mini-congress", the contents and results of the project will receive public attention.
The evaluated and revised module curricula will be published for free use by European art colleges and actively disseminated. The collection of focal points serves as a basis for an extended follow-up project. The universities, the students the participating theaters and their audiences as well as the art form puppet theater in general benefit from the networking, the artistic exchange, the campaign accompanying the project and the discussion of European topics.
