The Graduate History of Art Student Association at the University of Toronto announces this year’s annual History of Art conference: "Assessing Boundaries: Approaching Art from the Edge". This event will take place Friday January 19th, 2007, at the University of Toronto.
Graduate students, both MA and PhD, are invited to submit abstracts of no more than one page for twenty minute papers. Papers may address the notion of boundaries in the broadest sense, and are not limited by period or medium. Topics may include, but are not restricted to: national boundaries and borders, gender and bodily boundaries, appropriation and exploitation, historiographic categories and classification, art on the periphery, urban peripheries, the notion of the frame, literal and conceptual, travel and exile, spectatorship, voyeurism and surveillance… Papers from other disciplines that address these issues are also welcomed.
Please submit abstracts by December 15, 2006 at the following address: karine.tsoumis@utoronto.ca.
