Proposals
Chair a Session or Propose a Paper for the Annual Conference
The Annual Conference Committee invites CAA members to participate in the Annual Conference by either chairing a program session or presenting a paper at a program session. Conference sessions cover the breadth of current thought and research in art, art and architectural history, theory and criticism, pedagogical issues, museum and curatorial practice, conservation, and developments in technology.
Propose a Session
Individual CAA members may now submit a session proposal for the centennial Annual Conference, taking place February 9–12, 2011, in New York. Proposals are only accepted online; paper forms and postal mailings are not required.
To set up an account, please email Lauren Stark, CAA manager of programs, who will register your email address and provide you with a password. For full details on the process, please visit Chair a Conference Session. Deadline: September 1, 2009; no late applications are accepted.
Propose a Paper
The Call for Participation, published each February, is mailed to all CAA individual and institutional members and posted to the CAA website. This publication, which lists many of the panels and presentations for the upcoming Annual Conference, also contains instructions on how to propose a paper for a session. It also includes a call for Poster Session proposals and describes the Open Forms sessions.
Proposals for papers for the 2011 Annual Conference are solicited through the 2011 Call for Participation, to be published in February 2010.
The deadline for proposals of papers for the 98th Annual Conference, taking place February 10–13, 2010, in Chicago, has passed. You can still download the PDF of the 2010 Call for Participation to learn more about the 120-plus sessions taking place at next year’s conference.
