Collaborations in Modern and Postmodern Visual Art
Symposium May 27 - 28, 2010 - Monash University Prato Centre, Italy
Collaboration has fostered ground-breaking innovations in the visual arts during the 20th and 21st centuries. This symposium focuses on the dynamics of reciprocal exchanges and collaborative experiments by modern and postmodern artists. How might we situate creative partnership within its social and historical contexts, discursive and ideological frames, and the ‘instabilities’ of gender? What new methodologies can we bring to the study of artistic collaboration? In addressing these questions, this symposium seeks to shed light on both creative co-operation and politicized critiques of traditional models of authorship.
