Programme details
An academic programme with an interdisciplinary approach, focused on the artistic, reflective, and cultural particularities of Latin America from a situated perspective, while remaining open to dialogue with other cultural contexts. It fosters both high-level academic research and exchange among intellectuals, artists, and cultural practitioners.

Its research areas include: Memory and Representations: Analysis of cultural ways of evoking the past in Latin America; Comparative Poetics: Interdisciplinary study of artistic expressions across diverse cultural contexts; Thinking the Body and Affectivities: Exploration of the relationship between thought and context, with emphasis on affectivities and the body; Feminist and Gender Studies: Addressing social issues from feminist and gender perspectives; and Artistic Research and Practice.

In all cases, the applicant’s academic background will be assessed by the Programme Committee.
