The „I.L. Caragiale” National University of Theatre and Film in Bucharest is dedicated to educating experts in performing arts, film, and associated disciplines such as media, multimedia, and the business and educational aspects of the arts. It is committed to fostering a culture of innovation, excellence, and creativity through both solo and collaborative artistic endeavors.

The university’s Research Development and Innovation Department is geared towards enriching understanding and viewpoints in theater, film, and their related and interdisciplinary areas.

In light of recent progress in artificial intelligence and its widespread influence across various sectors—including the marketplace, education, policy-making, and the cultural sphere—we believe organizing a series of academic events focused on performing arts, film, and media would greatly aid both scholars and emerging talents in exploring the effects of cutting-edge AI technologies in these areas.

Occasioned by the Research and Innovation Week (R&I Week) – the European Commission’s flagship event on research and innovation which will take place between 18-21 March 2024, we are honored to invite you to the hybrid Conference we are organizing in Bucharest on the theme of AI in ART PRACTICES and RESEARCH with a focus on how AI impacts artistic and research practices.

The Conference will have a series of satellite events that will include art installations, workshops and guest speakers on the announced themes.
