A conference to be held at The Courtauld Institute of Art and King’s College London

Bodily, psychic and spatial interiors can be mapped, traversed and violated in multiple ways. This one-day conference will interrogate and re-evaluate the contested terrain of the interior in its varied forms. It will examine the interlacing and overlapping of different types of interiors, and seek to re-position the ‘interior’ in critical terms. Moreover, it will attempt to develop new ways of thinking about the relationship between the decorative arts, furniture, bio-technologies, anatomy and space. The conference will take place in The Courtauld Institute of Art Lecture Theatre and conclude with panel, performance, and keynote address in the Anatomy Theatre at King’s College London.

To book a place: £16 (£11 students, Courtauld staff/students and concessions)
