Annual College Art Association Conference 2020

Hilton Chicago, Chicago, Il, February 12 - 15, 2020

Deadline: 22 April 2020



Currently seeking papers for a session exploring the potential of historic
libraries to deepen and broaden our understanding of art historiography and
its relationship to social, intellectual and geo-political currents. Such
libraries include those not specifically intended for the study of art.
This session will build on a theme introduced at CAA 2019, where a wide
range of art-historical themes emerged from diverse libraries. These
libraries range from early modern through twentieth century, across several
continents, and survive intact or through inventories. Xu Bo’s library
inventory, for example, offers a view into the role of art history in Ming
dynasty regionalism, while the history of an individual Mexican codex
within the National Library of Spain tells of the shifting winds of
colonial and post-colonial cultural authority. But these libraries also
tell of more than geopolitical concerns. They underline efforts to define
the inchoate discipline of art history through a wide spectrum of
materials. At the same time, they demonstrate active participation in art
historical debates, and connections with artists and arts administrators.
Papers that examine any aspect of the historiography of art emerging from
the analysis of historic libraries will be welcomed.



Please send proposals for a paper including title, abstract (250 words) and
CV to Dr. Jeanne-Marie Musto <[log in to unmask]>.
