Click on Upcoming Meeting; click on Call for Papers.
We also wanted to let you know about the following session of
particular relevance to your organization.
Technology and Art History
New technology is changing the way art historians prepare their classes
each day. Does it also change the content of those classes? Does it
change what or how students learn? How does technology change art
historical research? Or art itself? Does art history ever cause
technological change? Papers touching on any aspect of the relationship
between art history and technology are encouraged, including but not
limited to questions of pedagogy, resource allocation, theoretical
concerns, or technology within art. Please send abstracts via e-mail
attachment to:
