It is proposed that, at the 2009 Conference, there should be a poster
session. For those not familiar with the concept of a conference poster
session, we would be asking participants to prepare a poster, a combination
of textual and visual material, which could be displayed on an allotted
area of wall space at the conference venue. These could then be viewed and
read by conference delegates, and the authors could make themselves
available, at times of their choosing, to discuss the poster content. The
poster session will therefore provide delegates with an opportunity to
participate in the conference as an author without preparing and presenting
a full paper in one of the conventional sessions. It would be possible to
present some aspect of your present or past work to potentially all the
delegates at the conference.

We are therefore calling for abstracts for the poster session. The poster
should address the general theme of the conference, Intersections. We would
particularly welcome posters which explored the intersection between art
history and art practice. Joint authorship of posters would also be
welcomed.

Deadline for proposals: 10 November 2009
