Curating Post-Nation Symposium
Rethinking the Survey Exhibition
for the Biennial Age

Friday 15 and Saturday 16 September 2006

Location
Arnolfini, 16 Narrow Quay, Bristol BS1 4QA

Occurring every five years, the British Art Show is the most ambitious survey of new and recent developments in art from the UK. The curators of the sixth incarnation of the survey exhibition set out to distinguish key influences on current British practice, and in doing so, observed the increasingly diverse cultural makeup of what is considered ‘British art’. Their selection reflects a multiplicity of artistic strategies and their determination to introduce a dynamic and changing element to the exhibition as it tours from one city to the next.

Timed to coincide with the final weekend of the British Art Show in Bristol, UK, this symposium will explore the structure of national survey exhibitions, their potential to reflect on new tendencies in contemporary art and to produce dynamic contexts for the consideration of artists living or working within a defined geographic context. By bringing together acclaimed curators and critics to reflect on the international context of biennale curating and new institutionalism, it will also explore, through a range of position papers and discussions, potential alternatives to conventional exhibition models.

The symposium offers the opportunity to see the British Art Show across Bristol from 11am on Friday 15 September and will then commence at Arnolfini from 3.30pm. Evening performance by artist Doug Fishbone.

Speakers:
• Alex Farquharson & Andrea Schlieker: Co-curators, British Art Show 6
• Chrissie Iles: Anne and Joel Ehrenkranz Curator, Whitney Museum of American Art, New York and Co-Curator of the Whitney Biennial 2004 and 2006
• Nina Möntmann: Curator and author of Art and its Institutions: Current conflicts, critique and collaborations, Black Dog Publishing
• Neil Mulholland: Reader in Contemporary Art Theory, Edinburgh College of Art
• Hans-Ulrich Obrist: Co-Director of Exhibitions and Programmes and Director of International Projects, Serpentine Gallery, London
• Ralph Rugoff: Director, Hayward Gallery, London

Moderators:
• Claire Doherty: Director of Situations and Senior Research Fellow in Fine Art, University of the West of England, Bristol
• Mark Godfrey: Art Historian and Critic, and Lecturer in History and Theory of Art at the Slade School of Fine Art, University College, London

Modernism: Designing a New World 1914-1939
Victoria & Albert Museum
South Kensington

14 - 15 July 2006
10:00 - 17:00

This international conference complements the major exhibition of the same name, the first to explore Modernism in the designed world from a truly international perspective, in terms of all the arts. Modernism was not a style but a loose collection of ideas. Covering a range of movements and styles that largely rejected history and applied ornament, often embracing abstraction, Modernism was driven by a utopian desire to create a better world. This desire was frequently expressed through social and political beliefs that asserted design and art could transform society. For Modernists, technology was the key means with which to achieve social improvement and the machine was a symbol of their aspiration.

The conference will benefit historians of art, design, architecture and the social sciences, cultural geographers, museum professionals, and members of heritage bodies as well as students, educators and artists. To stimulate debate on the subject, and go beyond the exhibition itself, the conference will consider a wide range of subjects.

Regionalism and Identity in British Art:
History, Environment & Contemporary Practice

Location: United_Kingdom
Conference Date: 2006-10-28
Date Submitted: 2006-05-25

This conference, jointly organised by UWE's Regional History Centre and the Royal West of England Academy, Bristol, explores the interplay between historical concepts of regional identity and their representational expression in the visual arts. Following a keynote address from Sir Howard Newby, it uniquely brings together a number of practicing visual artists and cultural historians and seeks connections between contemporary practice, regional/cultural geography and historical context. To what extent do historical memory, myth and ritual impact upon understandings of regional difference and how have those understandings been mapped and moulded in the arts? And how important have regional arts institutions like the RWA been in the historical manufacturing of civic pride and regional identity?

KINETICS OF THE SACRED
IN MEDIEVAL EUROPEAN AND EAST ASIAN ART, 800-1600:
PASSAGES OF SPACE, PLACE, TIME

An International Symposium hosted by the Department of the History of Art, University of Michigan, and the University of Michigan Museum of Art, Ann Arbor
29 September – 1 October 2006

This conference reconsiders medieval art (broadly construed as including work from 800 to 1600), focusing on the spatial and temporal matrices in which objects and their viewers are grounded and through which these agents move. Although participants need not have any specialist knowledge in art from other regions, the conference will adopt an explicitly cross-cultural approach to highlight methodological biases in the scholarship of both European and East Asian medieval art and to suggest new avenues of study in these fields.

We have borrowed the term "kinetics" from the physical sciences and intend to use it as a lens through which we can re-examine medieval religious art. The Oxford English Dictionary defines "kinetics" as "the branch of dynamics which investigates relationships between the motions of bodies and the forces acting upon them." Drawing on this basic definition, "kinetics" will be employed in this conference to mean the study of viewers and objects moving through the conceptual and physical spaces that are constituted and defined through their interactions. Questions that address this dynamic nexus between concepts of space, time, and subject-object relationships include the following:

Embodied presence: How does the viewer or the viewed move between the transcendent and mundane realms? In what ways can an apparently inanimate object be said to be activated, animated, alive? What are the motive forces of sacred art?
Passages of time and history: Through what kinds of temporal structures does the viewer or the viewed move? How do objects create and maintain a temporal structure around them? What senses of history are implied in specific works of art?
Mental and spatial topographies: What are the conceptual topographic structures in which the viewer and the viewed move? How do the physical characteristics of an object and its context affect its motion through this matrix, and how does the object in turn condition its environment? How are conceptual maps realized in the physical world?
Passages and thresholds: What happens betwixt and between social, religious, or other conceptual spaces? In which ways are viewers and the viewed affected by systems of containment and bounding? What happens when they cross those borders?

In addition to investigating questions such as these within the specific fields of the participants, our symposium is also meant to engage in wider methodological questions of cross-cultural research, examining its pitfalls, limitations, and possibilities. Stated simply, we will consider the question, "How can one make defensible and interesting cross-cultural comparisons and what is the value of this pursuit?" To that end, the symposium brings together representatives of two substantial and seemingly analogous bodies of scholarly and visual material – European and East Asian medieval art – to facilitate a series of focused dialogues on theoretical issues in art history that will draw primarily on the common store of examples provided by the participants. Not only will the colloquium serve as a testing ground for the validity of a trans-regional approach to medieval art, but we hope that it will also serve as a model for an intensive exchange of ideas between apparently disparate fields of study. Through this cross-cultural comparison, we hope to hold the mirror up to each of our fields, while considering the possibilities of drawing larger conclusions about visual cultures in general.

Our speakers are Paul Crossley, Courtauld Institute of Art, London; Thomas Cummins, Harvard University, Cambridge, MA; Jacqueline Jung, Yale University, New Haven; Ikumi Kaminishi, Tufts University, Boston; Yonekura Michio, Sophia University, Tokyo; Samuel Morse, Amherst College, Amherst, MA; and Zoë Opaÿiÿ, Birkbeck College, London.

The 2006 Art Museum Partnership Directors Forum

The Art Museum Partnership is proud to announce the creation of a new "Directors Forum" conference as its inaugural program for the leaders of art museums nationwide. The annual conference will unfold at a series of distinguished art-related settings in New York City on October 22-24, 2006 and is open to all full-time directors of not-for-profit art museums and galleries. The program will begin with an opening dinner at the historic National Arts Club, followed by two days of informative sessions and special events at museums, galleries and auction houses. Eminent guest speakers will explore a variety of timely subjects such as disaster management, institutional identity, collaborations with consultants and the misuse of corporate business models in the nonprofit sector.

The purpose of the Art Museum Partnership and its Directors Forum program is to identify and provide networking opportunities that facilitate the sharing of information, resources, and collections among the leaders of nonprofit art institutions. These initiatives were primarily established to benefit the directors of small to medium-sized museums that comprise the largest segment in the field, but are not represented by any other professional organizations. However, the leaders of large museums are encouraged to participate, since the challenges in the field are universal and all can benefit from the knowledge and experience of their peers.

This year's keynote speaker is Robert Workman, director of the Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art, which is being developed by the Walton Family Foundation on one hundred forested acres in Bentonville, Arkansas. Workman is a thirty-year museum veteran with a comprehensive background in all aspects of museum administration. Before joining the Crystal Bridges project, he was deputy director of the Amon Carter Museum in Fort Worth, Texas. During his eight-year tenure there, he led the museum's $39 million renovation and expansion project. Workman also has extensive traveling exhibition experience, including a seven-year tenure with the American Federation of Arts in New York City, where as the director of exhibitions, he enjoyed significant success in establishing collaborations with other art museums throughout the United States and abroad.

The members of the 2006 Directors Forum program committee are: Katherine B. Crum, Independent Curator, New York, NY; Laura Gorham, Director, Bermuda National Gallery, Hamilton, Bermuda; Kevin Grogan, Director, Morris Museum of Art, Augusta, GA; Bruce Katsiff , Director, The James A. Michener Museum, Doylestown & New Hope, PA; John W. Nichols, Director, Art Museum Partnership, New York, NY; Joseph Ruzicka, Director, Washington County Museum of Art, Hagerstown, MD; Susan Visser, Director, South Bend Regional Museum of Art, South Bend, IN.

A preliminary program will be released in June. To participate in the Directors Forum, individuals must be full-time, paid professional directors of nonprofit art museums or galleries open to the public on a regular schedule. The registration fee is $295, which includes the opening dinner, all sessions, one luncheon, and receptions.

Representing modernity: political and social caricature in European cities in the late 19th and 20th centuries
Stockholm, 30th August - 2nd September 2006

Specialist Session at the Eighth International Conference on Urban History

Urban Europe in Comparative Perspective. Organized by the European Association of Urban Historians

The growth of cities, the development of the media, and the emergence of mass politics – fundamental and much studied features of modern urban history – encouraged the proliferation of distinctive types of graphic representation: the humorous and satirical imaging of modern urban life, and of the political leaders who claimed to be shaping it.

Participants in this session are invited to present case studies of these caricatural practices, that address inter alia questions of authorship, style, reception, publishing platform, political and social significance and relation to urban context and networks.

The overall aim of the session will be to place these representational practices in a comparative framework, bringing out, and interpreting, similarities and dissimilarities in the forms of visual satire that developed in cities across Europe during the period.

During the programme there will be ample opportunity for discussion, if possible in front of the original works of art, and the participants are offered the opportunity to build up a network of contacts with scholars, curators and institutes in the Netherlands which may facilitate their future study of Dutch art.

Target group
The course is primarily intended for graduate students and professional art historians specialising in the field of Dutch art. Candidates will be selected on the basis of their detailed curriculum vitae and letter of motivation.
