CFP: ReVIEWING Black Mountain College 14 - Material + Structure

Type: Conferences & Symposia [View all]
Posted by: Black Mountain College Museum + Arts Center and UNC Asheville
Deadline: Mon, July 17th, 2023

Co-hosted by Black Mountain College Museum + Arts Center and UNC Asheville, this three-day program held Oct. 13-15, 2023, explores the history and legacy of Black Mountain College. This year’s conference celebrates the opening of the museum’s exhibition Weaving at Black Mountain College: Anni Albers, Trude Guermonprez, and Their Students, curated by Michael Beggs and Julie J. Thomson. Proposals connected to the Weaving Workshop at BMC and the artists associated with it are welcome, but the theme Material + Structure can also apply to many other disciplines and practices including the visual arts, writing, music, dance, performance, education, architecture, and more. Additionally, proposals on any theme related to Black Mountain College and its legacy are encouraged and will be considered, and, in the spirit of BMC, the conference challenges disciplinary boundaries, and invites contributions of all genres: performances, panels, multi-media proposals, and workshops are welcome.
