VI CONFERENCE ON DOCTORAL STUDIES IN ART AND MUSICOLOGY
Department of Art and Musicology
Live and feel music and art. The human vision of the arts from society and the senses
June 9 and 10, 2026
The sixth edition of the Conference on Doctoral Studies in Art and Musicology focuses on the study of artistic disciplines from the perspective of their interaction, self-representation and identification with human society. This conference welcomes research that analyses the arts as a social product, as well as studies that reflect on the interaction between emotions, music, and the arts, integrating sensory perception into any type of artistic manifestation. Individual and collective feelings and emotions have historically functioned as a means of connecting art and society.
The main objective of this edition is therefore to highlight the human dimension of art, created within specific social, cultural, and anthropological contexts. This thematic framework raises questions such as: Is it possible to separate the artistic object from human perception, both past and present? Can music and the other arts be studied without considering the societies they served? What do art and music reveal about the people and social contexts in which they were produced?
