Call for Writer’s | Artlink Magazine | Closes 25 November

Artlink magazine is calling for writer’s proposals for the April 2022 issue, Art/Write. The genre of contemporary art writing (and reading) constitutes a vast uneven meta-field of multiple agendas and formats, from scholarly informed art history to provocative criticism and short-form social media. This issue invites proposals from art writers across all disciplinary areas, backgrounds and generations. Using Artlink’s 40-year archive (1981-2021) as a stimulant, we welcome ideas that engage with critical, curatorial and historical writing, visual essays, speculative prose and experimental texts. Priority will be given to proposals that support creative producers from Australia, New Zealand and the Asia Pacific.  […]

Call for Papers | Obscurités | Darkness, Perspective, n° 2023 – 1

The journal Perspective: actualité en histoire de l’art will devote its n ° 2023 – 1 to the question of obscurity in its multiple meanings – shadow, darkness, non-knowledge, negativity . A discipline based on the study of the visible, art history is necessarily interested in what is brought to light and can be seen. However, the opposition between light and shadow, in its physical evidence as well as in its symbolic scope, structures human thought to a large extent. Many primordial myths associate the appearance of light and the banishment of darkness with the evolution of life and societies. Likewise, subsequent developments in philosophy and […]
