Closing date for proposals: 15th December 2010
Making Histories
International Insular Art Conference
Department of History of Art
University of York
18-22 July 2011
The art of the insular world has been the focus of specific study through the International Insular Art Conference meetings for over 25 years. The result has been a body of scholarship that has advanced our understanding of the material on many fronts.
The forthcoming Conference aims to continue this trend, by addressing the various ways in which the art, in all media, can be understood, as well as the ways in which that understanding itself has been constructed.
‘Making Histories’ thus invites papers that consider the processes involved in ‘making art’ (in the broadest sense) in the early medieval, insular, world, as well as those that consider the historical legacy of the scholarship on that art. Abstracts of 350 words should be submitted to Dr Jane Hawkes (jane.hawkes@york.ac.uk) by 15 December, 2010.
