From February 2024, Georg Winter, a visiting professor from Germany, will spend a semester at our university, funded by the Ludwig Sponsorship Award. During his stay, he will also be teaching an English language course for students on Promenadology, which can be registered for via Neptun.

And what is promenadology and what will the course be about? In uncertain times, artists and designers are faced with new situations and questions about their self-image and their role in artistic and creative participation in social processes. On the basis of nomadic and promenadological practices, we develop methods, tools, skills, forms of action that broaden the horizon, open up the scope and tie in directly with what concerns the participants and how they can transfer it. Places, languages, images, forms of action and objects are changed, seen anew, transformed, taken along, shared and negotiated. Everyone is invited to participate on an interdisciplinary basis. Artistic research, Strollology or promenadological exercise are practical, courageous but not always an easy way. In the spirit of Carl Einstein: "Miracles are a question of training".

Further details of the course can be found in the attached course description.
