Through this and the three focuses - (1) reasons for the popularisation of such artistic activities, (2) their possible definitions and (3) the question of their value - the author comes to the conclusion that artistic practices and research are not opposed to 'final' artworks, but that the (creative) process and the result likewise constitute different aspects of the same phenomenon - creation. %U https://intellectdiscover.com/content/journals/10.1386/maska.28.159-160.82_1
