Call for papers on the topic of “COLLECTIONS” for the 13th triennial NORDIK Conference of Art History in the Nordic Countries, 24.-28.10. 2022 (virtual via zoom).
Deadline: May 9th 2022
Confirmed keynote speakers:
Steven ten Thije, Head of collections, Van Abbemuseum, Eindhoven, Netherlands
Susanna Pettersson, Director General, Nationalmuseum, Stockholm, Sweden
Collections are the basis for art history as we know it. Whether in museums or on the pages of treatises, we bring objects and artworks together and ascribe meaning to them. Through history, artmaking has been deeply entwined with collecting. Collections give power – over history, over art, over taste, and ultimately over the future. Arguing about and intervening in collections can also be a fight for alternatives and other futures, or a way to right past wrongs. Collections are born from creativity, and they can stifle new creations. Many artworks are collections in themselves and the collection itself can be seen as an artwork. No matter the perspective, collections are deeply bound to art history.
The NORDIK Association for Art Historians is hereby announcing a call for papers for the upcoming conference taking place 24.-28.10. 2022 under the heading “Collections”.
Preference will be given to paper proposals that are at a high level of reflexivity and at the forefront of research and practice in art history or related branches of study such as visual culture, critical theory or museum studies. Contributions based upon artistic research and practice are highly welcome.
Málstofan Listfræði og íslensk tungaá Hugvísindaþingi Háskóla Íslands laugardaginn 12. mars 2022. Málstofan verður haldin í stofu 201 í Árnagarði og stendur yfir kl. 10.00-12.00. Allir hjartanlega velkomnir.
Íslensk tunga er undirstaða uppbyggingar faglegs umhverfis fyrir listfræði hérlendis. Færni í notkun tungumálsins er grundvöllur umfjöllunar um íslenska list og sögu hennar. Hnattvæðing listheimsins og fræðasamfélagsins skapar hins vegar þrýsting á listfræðinga að skrifa á erlendum málum fremur en á íslensku, sem og að taka upp alþjóðleg fræðiheiti og að laga íslenska listasögu að almennum skilningi þeirra. Á málstofunni veltum við fyrir okkur stöðu íslenskrar tungu í samhengi fagmáls listfræðinnar á alþjóðlegum grundvelli og framtíðaruppbyggingu faglegs umhverfis fyrir listfræði hérlendis.

1. Ársskýrsla stjórnar kynnt og lögð fram til samþykktar.

How to identify, preserve and work with authenticity in House Museums and Collection Museums in the Nordic countries
A network meeting for curators, researchers and conservator-restorers working with house museums and collection museum in the Nordic Countries.
In a museum landscape of ever increasing pressure to present success and output, it is important to remember who we are and why we are here. House and collection museums in the Nordic countries have a rich history linked to lived life, to artists and to collectors. The seminar brings us together to share experiences and research.
We are proud to present the key-note:
Is there a museum in the house?
Sceptical ways of looking at house museums
