Deadline 14.03: Artistic relations and exchanges in the Nordic-Baltic region
Call for abstracts for Round-Table on the “historical development of artistic interactions of the Nordic–Baltic realm since the Great Baltic Exhibition in 1914” are due 14th of March.
The Baltic Exhibition in 1914, Malmö, Sweden.
The Round-Table
The Round-Table will take place on Zoom through one to three sessions on the following dates: 3rd, 8th and 10th June, 14.00–17.00 CET. The Round-table is hosted by ReNEW.
The overall purpose is to create collegial contacts, and we invite researchers willing to share their thoughts and ideas in focused research workshops. The discussions aim to explore the nature of artistic relations and exchanges in the Nordic–Baltic Realm, 1915–2004, for example what interests they furthered, if contacts were small-scale and trans-local, centre–periphery, centre–centre, or multidirectional, regional and networked. The discussions will also explore what agents facilitated artistic contacts, art transfers or exhibitions in the Nordic–Baltic realm: individual artists or collectors, art institutions, biennales, art fairs, cultural policy institutions, chambers of commerce, artists’ unions, political organisations or others? What important events changed cross-border contacts in the Nordic–Baltic realm?
Call for abstracts
The abstracts (up to 350 words) for papers may present outlines of thoughts and ideas of forthcoming research or summaries of previous research, highlight specific research problems or methodological issues, archival materials, and are to be e-mailed to [email protected] before 14th March. The accepted abstracts will be announced on 1st April with notification of a deadline for a paper of no more than 2000 words.
