The Society for the Philosophic Study of the Contemporary Visual Arts (SPSCVA) invites papers to be presented at its divisional meeting held in conjunction with the Central Division Meetings of the American Philosophical Association (February 20-23, 2013, New Orleans Hilton, New Orleans, LA). Papers may address any topic that involves the connection between philosophy and the visual arts: film, photography, video games, or other aesthetic media.
Presentations should be 20-25 minutes (10-12 pages in length). Participants must be currently paid members of the SPSCVA. (You do not need to be a member of the SPSCVA to submit a paper for consideration.) Please submit full papers only (not abstracts). The Society also welcomes proposals for panels, author-meets-critics, or other special sessions, as well as volunteers to serve as panel chairs and commentators.
Submission Deadline: Wednesday, August 1, 2012
Please submit papers or panel proposals as e-mail attachments, with SPSCVA initiating the subject line in your email. Central Division papers & proposals should be sent to: Dan Flory (Montana State University) at dflory@montana.edu
