Dossier de fichas de los proyectos editoriales participantes en los Encuentros SOBRE 2014

Abstract

In December 2014, the SOBRE Lab team (www.sobrelab.com) organized the I SOBRE Conference on Artistic Practices and Editorial Policies, held at the Faculty of Fine Arts of the University of Granada.

The principal aim of the conference was to establish a relational map of the different initiatives linking contemporary editorial and art projects. The design of the event took into account the geopolitical context of this university and the professional and/or research links between the team members and Andalusia, setting this region as the primary geographical focus.

The experience brought together groups and individuals including professionals, associations, teaching staff and students, and created areas of common interest based on a series of case studies that were presented and debated, together with question-and-answer dialogue.

Thanks to this event, participants were able to share experiences characterized by investigating and communicating the effects and affects that emerge when artistic output is interrelated with knowledge-dissemination – emphasizing the political–relational dimension of current editorial forms and systems.

An open access database is being prepared that captures the key data and basic profile for each participant/speaker and the different initiatives related to this field. Here we present the first entries to this database.
