Annual Conference 1997
Structures and Practices
4 - 6 April 1997
Courtauld Institute of Art, London
The Conference will address issues raised by artistic structures and practices and the relationships between them. The idea of structures is treated in the broadest terms. It will explore art institutions and the more conceptual frameworks within which art and architecture have been made and interpreted, including questions of language and gender. Academic sessions cover a broad spectrum of areas of study, and explore the theme from a wide variety of historical and theoretical perspectives. In addition, they address visual practices that fall outside conventional notions of 'fine art', such as the notions of performance and of the 'decorative'arts.
