New modes of critical writing are challenging conventional expectations of meaning and objectivity through narrative/counter-narrative, authorial presence, style, language, and rhetoric. This development is also present in the visual arts. Fashioned or found, the object maintains its status as a familiar trope within contemporary practice. Speakers are invited to explore the possibilities of narrative in relation to particular, individual and collections of objects.
This conference forms part of a series that will examine the manner and structure of narration across a range of contemporary practices (e.g. art object, film, photography, criticism). Keynote speakers include Martha Buskirk (Montserrat College of Art), Yve Lomax (Royal College of Art) and Jane Rendell (Bartlett School of Architecture, UCL), John Kear (University of Kent)
Proposals for 20 minute papers / presentations based on new research (with a view to publication) are now invited
