Ten years of ARIA. Ten years of bridging artistic and academic research. Ten years of exploring what academic research can learn from artistic practice—and vice versa. 

On March 19, we welcome Elizabeth Povinelli (Columbia University), a groundbreaking thinker, anthropologist, artist, and activist who challenges us to redefine the intersections between disciplines. Her work embodies ARIA’s mission: fostering a dialogue where art, science, and society don’t merely coexist but actively inspire one another
