CALL FOR PAPERS

The Organisers invite abstract proposals for the 2022 Annual Conference of The Nordic Society for Aesthetics, with the leading topic “Resistance, Art and Aesthetics”. The notion of resistance is central to art and aesthetics. Throughout history, resistance has been enacted in artistic practices as well as formulated in aesthetic theory, even as a resistance in itself. It has emerged as a conceptualization and theme in various art forms and as art forms resisting their own conceptualization. Resistance is furthermore vital to a theory that aims to critically analyze art and its relation to history and society. This conference will explore resistance as a concept of and in art and aesthetics that encompasses a wide span of, at times, conflicting questions and topics.

Deadline for abstract submission: 15 February, 2022.
