Art Historians Interested in Pedagogy and Technology (AHPT)
AHPT (Art Historians Interested in Pedagogy and Technology) has been an affiliate society since the 1990s and enjoyed a re-enlivened period from 2011-17. The aim of the Society was to provide a platform for teaching Art Historians to learn about and engage with new technologies that would enhance their pedagogy. Since the turn of the millennium, those of us who teach Art History have engaged deeply with multiple technologies. Particularly at CAA sessions, the Society has worked to have stimulating and educational presentations and workshops ranging in topics such as pedagogical philosophy and use of museum collections to hands-on opportunities to work directly with tools such as Voice-thread, Twitter, and OMEKA. As we continue to use and explore ever-evolving options for technological innovation within the field of Art History, the Society has noticed a trend toward self-training in new tech, and very little interest in the Society. Although CAA sessions have been popular and stimulating, there are many such sessions being offered by other groups and individuals, and thus the time for AHPT to dissolve is at hand. We are pleased to see the work of AHTR (Art History Teaching Resources) which continues to focus on teaching and learning, and so we point those of you also interested in these topics to spend some time on their website and look out for their sponsored sessions. Thank you so much for your support and interest in AHPT and hope to see you in New York in February! -Sarah J. Scott, AHPT President

AKPIA@MIT | A Conversation on Modern Art in the Arab World and its Documents: Thursday, May 24, 2018
AMCA founding members Anneka Lenssen, Sarah Rogers and Nada Shabout held a conversation at MIT celebrating the launch of their new edited volume Modern Art in the Arab World: Primary Documents (2018). The event took place on Thursday, May 24, 2018 with a roundtable discussion moderated by AKPIA students Sarah Rifky and Suheyla Takesh.
Modern Art in the Arab World: Primary Documents (2018)–an anthology of translated art writing by artists and intellectuals in the Arab world of the twentieth century–offers an unparalleled resource for the study of modernism. Many of the published texts are appearing for the first time in English, and include manifestos, essays, discussion transcripts, diary entries and letters. The book is the eighth volume in The Museum of Modern Art’s Primary Documents series, which offers access to essential documents for the study of global modernism. This edition, includes sixteen new entries, by the editors and other scholars, and a new essay by the historian and Arab-studies scholar Ussama Makdisi providing a historical overview of the region’s intertwined political and cultural developments in the twentieth century.
During this event, the editors discussed how this project came about, the intricacies and challenges of the creating this archive, the challenges of organizing, selecting and contextualizing the material included in the book, and more broadly what bearings this project has on new histories of global modernism under construction.
Anneka Lenssen is Assistant Professor of Global Modern Art, at UC-Berkeley. She received her PhD in 2014 from the History, Theory, Criticism program and Aga Khan Program for Islamic Architecture at MIT. Her current book project, Beautiful Agitation: Modern Painting in Syria and the Arab East, is a study of avant-garde painting and the making of Syria as a contested territory between 1920 and 1970.
Sarah Rogers is an independent scholar. She earned her PhD in 2008 from the History, Theory and Criticism program, where she wrote her dissertation “Post-war Art and the Historical Roots of Beirut’s Cosmopolitanism.” She is a founding member of the Association for Modern and Contemporary Art of the Arab World, Iran and Turkey (AMCA) and is currently editing a collection of essays on the Khalid Shoman Private Collection.
Nada Shabout is a Professor of Art History and the Coordinator of the Contemporary Arab and Muslim Cultural Studies Initiative (CAMSCI) at the University of North Texas.

Historians of Netherlandish Art (HNA)
HNA welcomed 250 participants for the ninth quadrennial HNA Conference held in Ghent, Belgium, May 23-26, 2018. HNA will move to a triennial format going forward, with the next conferences in 2021 and 2024. Please visit our HNA Conference webpage for more information: https://hnanews.org/news/opportunities/hna-conference/
The editors of JHNA are pleased to announce that the Samuel H. Kress Foundation has awarded the journal a grant to underwrite the costs of publishing a digital project in the next year. The project in question is Melanie Gifford’s “The Fall of Phaeton in the evolution of Peter Paul Rubens.” Melanie is Research Conservator for Painting Technology at the National Gallery of Art, Washington. Her project uses high-resolution zoomable images and interactive paint sample analysis to illustrate her discovery of two distinct campaigns of revision by the artist in The Fall of Phaeton. This new information has important implications for our understanding of the artist’s evolution: we see how he continued to engage critically with his experience in Italy (1600-1609) after he had returned to Antwerp, and we observe his creative process as he moved between paintings and rethought the efficacy of his compositions.
Articles can be submitted to JHNA at any time. Please see the following link: https://jhna.org/submissions/

Society of Architectural Historians (SAH)
Travel to Cuba with architect Belmont Freeman, FAIA, December 1-14, for the 2018 SAH Field Seminar and enjoy an ambitious immersion in the architecture, urbanism, and landscape of the country, covering territory from Havana in the west to Guantánamo, Cuba’s eastern-most province.
The first five days will concentrate on the capital city of Havana and its environs, examining the colonial architecture of the old city, early and mid-century modernism, and the radical avant-garde of the post-revolution period. The second week will take us on an overland journey through a string of historic cities—and beautiful countryside—ending in Santiago de Cuba, Cuba’s #2 city and very Caribbean counterpart to cosmopolitan Havana.
Travel to Cuba, and to Havana in particular, has in recent years become easier for Americans. This tour, therefore, is designed to take SAH members away from tourist centers and to places that they would be unlikely to visit on their own.
An SAH Study Program Fellowship is available for a graduate student or emerging scholar to participate in the tour. The application deadline is Friday, August 3.
Space is limited. The registration deadline is Friday, August 3.

Accepted participants must be members of both SECAC and CAA.
Session abstract: From the eighteenth-century onward artists have turned their attention to sites and scenes of the American South. In the years before the Civil War, southern art tended to glorify the plantation while striving to maintain the social order. Stereotypes initiated during the antebellum period continued unabated post-war. Many of these continue in various forms today. This session invites papers by both artists and scholars whose work investigates the rich history of the American South. Papers considering any medium will be considered.
The 74th Annual SECAC Conference, hosted by the University of Alabama at Birmingham, will be held October 17 through 20, 2018. Offsite events include a keynote address by Andrew Freear of Auburn University’s Rural Studio and a reception to view the exhibition Third Space/Shifting Conversations about Contemporary Art at the Birmingham Museum of Art, and the annual SECAC Artist’s Fellowship and Juried Exhibitions’ reception at will be held at UAB’s Abroms-Engel Institute for the Visual Arts.
