In the past 10 years, major steps have been taken in artistic research. In the School of Arts PXL-MAD Hasselt (B), as in many institutes, artistic research has become one of the most important focal points. In the lecture series ‘MAD-talks’ five researchers and tutors from the Department of Object & Jewellery will present their ideas and work.

The Department of Object & Jewellery at School of Arts PXL-MAD offers an artistic, academic English Master programme in Visual Arts (one year – 60 ECTS). The course revolves around experimentation and research, which thinking and doing are in a constant interaction. The ambiguous position that the field of object-making and jewellery takes within the world of the visual arts, crafts and design is seen as an inspiring starting point that is constantly questioned in order to develop a critical attitude towards our own discipline.

During the lecture series, this year's master students of Object & Jewellery of PXL-MAD will present their project 'MAD PiXeLs’ by involving the audience. Visitors of the annual event MJW 2016 will receive a brooch in pixel shape. In return, they are asked to ‘activate’ it in order to assist in sharpening a blurry vision. To conclude MAD-talks, we will offer some typical Belgian food and drinks.
