Submissions Open │ Hunar Symposia Conference: An exploration of art and conflict

Submissions are now open for Hunar Symposia’s inaugural conference on 16 -18 November 2022  Hunar believes that art, in all its forms, functions in a similar way, serving as a bridge between our utopic desires and the concrete possibilities for change. In this sense, it makes visible what has been deemed invisible, and speakable what has been deemed unspeakable, opening new paths to understand and overcome our social and political challenges.

In this context, we challenge researchers […]

Call for manuscript proposals │Research / Art / Writing, a new series with Brill

Research / Art / Writing (RAW) aims to promote critical, discursive, and creative engagement with global contemporary art and visual cultures. RAW understands art as an expanded field of practice, supporting experimental and interdisciplinary writing. We wish to provide a home for exciting, necessary, progressive work.

Call for Proposals │ Unlikely – Journal for Creative Arts Issue 9: RESISTANCE
