Graduate Student Conference: In the Distance
(from CAA)
Posted by: History, Theory, and Criticism of Art and Architecture, MIT
Deadline: 11/15/09
The general perception is that intellectual and creative production outside of major cultural centers necessarily defines itself in relationship to these centers. However, the 2010 Research in Progress Conference proposes that this condition of dependence, generated by geographical distance, can be stimulating, productive, and sometimes even liberating.
How and by whom are such notions as periphery and province constructed? How does the acceptance or denial of one's own provincialism influence identity and culture in general? These are a few of the many possible questions our conference hopes to address. We encourage presentations that discuss various episodes in the history of art, architecture and culture.
