CFP, Season Greetings, and more

Dec 28, 2021 | deadline, event, news, Russian Art

Dear friends and members of the Russian Art & Culture Group,

We hope everyone had lovely holidays and enjoyed them as much as possible, despite the pandemic-driven restrictions.

At the end of the year, we would like to draw your attention to a CFP for a forthcoming workshop on Revisiting Russian-speaking artistic (e)migration, 1900-1939. The deadline for submitting a proposal is January 15, 2022, and the workshop will be online on April 7-8, 2022. We are looking forward to an interesting workshop with our colleagues from the research project Relocating Modernism: Global Metropolises, Modern
Art and Exile (METROMOD) based at the LMU Munich.

Furthermore, as a little gift, we would like to share the link to a wonderful online contribution by Miriam Leimer. As one of the main organizers of this year’s conference on the First Russian Exhibition of 1922, she wrote an intriguing text on this very topic for decoder. Enjoy reading the Russian version or the German original!

Finally, we would like to wish you a joyous Holiday season and a happy and peaceful New Year! May the new options of remote events draw the community together but may there also be new opportunities to exchange our ideas and insights in person!

All the best from your Russian Art & Culture Group

Deadline Today!

The deadline of our Call for Papers for the forthcoming Eighth Graduate Workshop of the Russian Art & Culture Group is today! Use this last chance for submitting your proposal!

Since our workshop with the topic The Problem of Religious Art in Modernity. Uses and Abuses of the Icon in Russia is scheduled for September 23rd to 25th (exact dates depend on the amount of submissions), we are still hoping that we will be able to meet you all in person – despite the current situation. We will definitely keep you posted about any changes which might need to be made.

We will hopefully gather in the rooms of the Internationales Kolleg Morphomata at Cologne University. The discussions of international junior and senior scholars will be joined by our keynote speaker, Professor George Pattison from Glasgow.

Please send an abstract of no more than 250 words along with a short biographical note of 100 words today to workshop@russian-art.net.

You will find all the necessary information in the Call’s pdf. However, please do not hesitate to contact the organizers of this workshop, Clemena Antonova and Ludmila Piters-Hofmann, using the email address above.

We are looking forward for your submissions!
