Call for proposals
The biennial conference event Art in Translation will be held in Reykjavík for the third time in the fall of 2014. It is open to academics, artists and creative entrepreneurs who wish to present their projects within an international and interdisciplinary environment. On this occasion, the title of the conference is "The Art of Being in Between." We hope that this provides a rich vein of ideas for academics, artists and indeed anyone engaged in visual, literary, musical, dramatic, filmic or intermedial arts. As ever, we envisage translation, in the broadest sense of the word, as one of the presiding concepts of the conference, allowing us an opportunity to focus on both what can be said to be transferred between cultures and languages and what perhaps remains, in a less stable state, oscillating between them.
Possible topics include, but are not limited to, the following:
The deadline for proposals for papers, events, and exhibitions is May 15, 2014.
