Revista Apotheke

The Apotheke Journal, an online journal with free and universal access, has received unpublished scientific articles on the theme “Between approaches, methods and methodologies in artistic practice in the visual arts”. This issue was dedicated to studies and reflections on artistic practice, its methods, methodologies and approaches that circulate in the creative space between art and life, in what concerns production in the visual arts. Reflecting “between” means, modes, forms, tools, concepts, references, epistemologies and practices that guide artistic thought (from conception to production and reception of the work) is also part of the artist’s training.

Artists and researchers in the visual arts were invited to participate in a call for articles that aimed to deepen our understanding of the approaches, methods and methodologies that support contemporary artistic practice. We are looking for contributions that highlight the importance of sharing and deconstructing the creative process, promoting a valuable exchange of experiences and perspectives in the world of art.

Understanding the innovative approaches, experimental methods and engaging methodologies that feed artistic production is of crucial importance. We therefore encourage artists to share their own approaches, exploring the territories of creativity, techniques and research that have led to the works that define their practice. We also encourage the analysis of other artists’ works, highlighting the unique contributions that these artistic approaches bring to the world of visual arts. This call for papers offers an opportunity to deepen the diversity of artistic practices on a global scale, while inspiring new connections and dialogues between contemporary artists.

We hope that this issue of Apotheke Magazine will contribute significantly to the field of visual arts, stimulating new reflections and innovative artistic practices.
