Another CFP - specially for Frances
Is it a good idea to put Calls for Papers here rather than emailing?
The History of Art Department at the University of Birmingham is organising its first one-day postgraduate-led conference on all aspects of eighteenth-century art and visual culture, and invites proposals for 20-minute student papers.
The conference will be a valuable opportunity for students of eighteenth-century art to share their research in a friendly environment, gain new ideas, prompt new directions in their studies, and to network with others.
To coincide with the conference there will be an exhibition of eighteenth-century illustrated travel literature, selected from the collections of the Barber Art Library and Birmingham University Library’s Special Collections. All speakers and delegates will have the opportunity to visit this exhibition. They will also be able to enjoy the wider collections of the Barber Institute in which the History of Art Department is situated. The Barber has particularly outstanding holdings of eighteenth-century art.
Proposals of around 300 words in length, along with your name, contact details and institutional affiliation, should be sent to Caroline Walker: caroline@glyncotts.freeserve.co.uk, by the closing date of 1 February 2006.
The conference is being held with the support of the Paul Mellon Centre for Studies in British Art, and the University of Birmingham Postgraduate Centre.
