Wir freuen uns, am Dienstag, 19. Juni 2018, 19 Uhr, Prof. Gabriele Schmid zu einem Vortrag Ph.D.-Lehrwoche begrüßen zu dürfen: »After Images. Participatory Observation as Artistic Autoethnography«. Interessierte sind herzlich eingeladen.
Abstract:
My interest in artistic autoethnography stems from the epistemological question after the togetherness of experience – affect and emotion - and the form finding process in visual art. Artistic autoethnography as I understand it consists of two strands: The first is the autobiographical connectedness with the artistic form finding process. It can be followed through an artist’s professional biography like a narrative. The second is the artistic perception in connection with artistic knowledge. It that can be found in the artistic form itself, as it arises for example in Cézannes notion of the tache. Both, artistic perceptions and autobiographical foundations build analogies and lead to a model of artistic autoethnography. Artistic autoethnography places itself on the borderline between research and art and insofar has much in common with the epistemological presumptions around artistic research.
Artistic or evocative autoethnography can be distinguished from analytical or social-scientific autoethnography. The latter follows the path of qualitative research and involves a combination of fieldwork, interpretive qualitative data, and systematic data analysis. Different from that, the so called evocative autoethnography has its epistemological foundation in art. It is singular and subjective by nature. The knowledge it produces arises in the process of the making and reception. It is shared between the artist researcher his or her audience.
Whereas the artistic quality is fundamental in evocative autoethnography, most of them are written texts and come as autobiographical informed narratives. It is my attempt to propose possible ways of including visual art into the frame of evocative autoethnography. In that sight I investigate the painter’s gaze as a specific way of participatory observation. Its inherent empathic quality connects the painter, the painted, the painting, and, like an after image, the viewer.
