The Research Catalogue (RC)
THE LARGEST INTERNATIONAL ONLINE PLATFORM
The Research Catalogue is the largest repository for artistic research. As an international platform for sustainable, long-term, open access publication of artistic research outcomes and results, it hosts 4,800 published expositions and serves 28,000 users. It aims to be an open space for experimentation and exchange.
MULTIPLE MODES OF PRESENTATION
For artistic research, the mode of presentation of research outcomes and results is essential. PDFs and conventional formats for research publications are not suitable for complex and rich media presentations. The Research Catalogue provides a platform that also supports non-linear forms of presentation for research and education across the arts and beyond.
FREE FOR ARTISTS AND RESEARCHERS
The Research Catalogue is a non-commercial, collaborative platform. It is free to use for artists and researchers. It serves also as a backbone for teaching purposes, student assessment, peer review workflows, journal publications and research funding administration.
SUPPORTING SOUND, IMAGE, VIDEO, TEXT
The Research Catalogue allows artists and researchers to go beyond the standard format of journal articles or research repositories. It allows for the combination of sound, moving and still images, video, and other media in an integrated format for presentation. The visual disposition and the focus on different media formats is under the full control the authors.
WHY RESEARCH CATALOGUE?
What the users of the RC say
Genalguacil Pueblo Museo Foundation, uses the Research Catalogue to provide open access to its collection and programmes as a common good, as a source of inspiration, in how arts-based approaches, practices, and collaborations can catalyse social transformation.

I use the Research Catalogue from SAR as an important tool to promote and support Artistic Research. The NARP portal is a rich resource for PhD students and staff working with doctoral education in performing and creative arts in Norway.
