On 20 October and 8 December 2010, art photographer Craigie Horsfield gave lectures and moderated workshops attended by students of art and philosophy of art. UCSIA staged these activities in cooperation with Arthur Cools (Faculty of Arts, AUHA), the Royal Academy of Fine Arts (Artesis), Sint Lucas Antwerp (Karel De Grote School of Higher Education) and the modern art museum M HKA.

Craigie Horsfield is convinced that artists should radically engage in society. There is no art without dialogue, or recognition of the spectator.  The artist debated his views with sociologist of art Pascal Gielen (Rijksuniversiteit Groningen), historian of art Hans de Wolf (Free University of Brussels) and scholar of art Joris Capenberghs.
