The Research Group on Art, Globalization and Interculturality is the core academic branch of gvc. Founded in 2007 by researchers affiliated with universities from Latin America, United States, Eastern and Central Europe, this long-term project involves theoreticians working in trans-disciplinary areas of expertise and develops theory-based programs derived from the convergence of diverse fields of research such as global studies, translation studies, postcolonial studies, visual studies, and world art studies among others. This group is currently linked to the University of Barcelona (Art History Department) where it promotes diverse activities such as seminars, talks, and symposia. Permanent researchers are faculty members of different universities while contribute on a regular basis to some of the University of Barcelona’s programs, such as the Postgraduate Degree on Contemporary Art Advanced Studies (Art History Department).

This group has been awarded diverse grants for its research activities. In 2008, it was granted a three-year found for the project New Typologies on the Study of Art: Identity, Micro-politics, and Ethnography. With the support of the Scientific Research, Development and Technological Innovation National Plan (Ministerio de Educación de Esapaña) this group is actually conducting a new research program entitled Locating Visuality in the Global Era: Concepts, Approaches, and New Methodologies. More recently, the group has established a three year inter-institutional partnership with INHA (Institut National d’Histoire de l’Art-Paris). Under the umbrella of this collaborative project, gvc will coordinate a two working meetings (Barcelona 2011, 2012), an international symposium (Paris, 2013), and a book publication.
The Research Group on Art, Globalization and Interculturality aims to:
- stimulate intercultural debates on visuality
- promote cross-cultural approaches to worldwide art production/circulation
- analyze the interplays between diverse visual cultures on a global scale
