„Whether you’re an experienced scholar or just starting a project, there’s no better reading than this book to understand the value of artscience collaborations.“
Dr. Andrea Bandelli in his book review, published in Spokes #51: (Link, PDF)

„It is one of the first books that I know of which focusses on contemporary examples of art-science collaborations, describing the projects and their success. The author focuses on the opportunities that such collaborations offer not only to the artist but also to the scientists.“

„Insightful book about artscience collaborations by Claudia Schnugg, researcher and advocate of artscience collaboration, and a producer and curator of residency programs.“

Artists and scientists are increasingly integrating their skills and techniques to produce projects and products that are redefining both disciplines, but until now there has been no analysis of how such collaborations work, what differentiates failures from success, or how institutional contexts mediate success.   An essential read for anyone interested in cross- or transdisciplinary ventures more generally, Claudia Schnugg has written the book about artist-scientist collaborations that everyone has been waiting for!

Little is known still about the point where art, technology and science collide. Yet large companies are trying to involve themselves heavily in this space. In this book Claudia gives a better view into the world of art and science collaborations through case studies and projects that she either followed or was an integral part of herself. This gives a very deep and thorough insight into what it takes to be involved in this field, or to help it grow. This book is a must-read for anyone interested in the innovations that will shape the future of technology; blending art, tech and science in ways that don’t exist yet.

It is a great pleasure to read this book, precisely because of the classic and important theme of the social sciences and of the organizational studies that is discussed there, namely the separation of art and science that has become normal and habitual with modernist thinking. Claudia Schnugg opens a discussion on this that is rooted in empirical research and that allows us to become better aware of how to “bring the collaboration of artscience to life”.

Unlike other books which have focused on „ArtSci“ as the creative practice where artists are inspired by science to create critical artworks, this book focuses instead on collaborative projects between artists and scientists, many of which have resulted in major scientific breakthroughs and discoveries. Schnugg focuses on the values created by work which breaks down knowledge barriers between disparate fields, with new insights and new languages emerging from open and horizontal collaborative environments. Through compelling case studies, she demonstrates the central role of ArtScience in informing both rigorous artistic practice and applied scientific research, with major implications on the study of philosophy, psychology, social studies and educational practice. A must read for anyone interested in creating a bigger societal impact using applied transdisciplinary knowledge.

Timely and timeless, broad and deep, surprising and surprisingly useful…I think these dualities best capture my reading of “Creating ArtScience Collaboration”. And as icing on the cake, it is a genuine pleasure to read. This is a book where the usual becomes refreshingly unusual. Whereas Art and Science stereotypically live in opposite universes, Dr. Schnugg convincingly and provocatively shows us how well they can dance and play together. Highly recommended!
