CARPA Mission statement:
"The Performing Arts Research Centre at the Theatre Academy Helsinki invites artistic researchers at doctoral and post-doctoral levels to take part in the second biannual colloquium on artistic research in performing arts, which will focus on
ARTISTIC RESEARCH IN ACTION."
"Participants are invited to share their research as it takes place and unfolds. The colloquium will explore the borderline between artistic and action research. According to our working hypothesis, an artistic researcher transforms his/her artistic medium into a medium of research. Artistic research can claim validity only through taking place in action."
