Launceston and Hobart, Tasmania
The Annual Conference of the Art Association of Australia and New Zealand will be held in Launceston, Tasmania, 5-7 December 2014, with an optional day in Hobart, 8 December 2014. The conference will be based at the Inveresk Precinct, hosted by the University of Tasmania (Tasmanian College of the Arts and the School of Architecture and Design) and the Queen Victoria Museum and Art Gallery.
Sessions have been set for one and a half hours, with the expectation (although not the rule) being for three twenty-minute papers, each followed by ten minutes of questions, discussion, explication or commentary from a designated discussant. Session Convenors will tailor the session to best address the concerns set out in the session abstract and with acknowledgement of the conference theme, GEOcritical. Those applying for the ARI sessions should note the specific requirements for those sessions set out in the abstracts.
Proposals for papers must be sent to the Session Convenors listed with each session abstract, not to the AAANZ nor the Session Curators. Where contact details are given for only one convenor, that person has elected to manage the proposals for that session and correspondence should only be with that convenor. Where no contact details (email or phone) are given for convenors of a particular session, that session has already been filled by the convenors: no further papers can be considered for that session however consideration should be given to applying to present in the Open Session.
Proposals should be received by Session Convenors by Friday 29 August 2014.
