Academic Session 3: Warwick 2011
AAH Annual Conference 2011
31 March – 2 April, University of Warwick
Poster Session
Session Convenors:

Growing interest in the Poster Session has raised the number of accepted proposals – 14, that is – to the highest level since its inauguration at the AAH conference in 2008. Quality and diversity also are high, with this year’s Poster Session encompassing a wide range of visually rich research topics that allow its researchers to introduce aspects of new projects, projects in progress and summaries of explicate work that has been realized. The Poster Session provides an opportunity for art historians to communicate visually their research into visual and material culture of the past and present, as well as one for artists to engage the art historical community via a mode of presentation that mingles images, graphical devices and texts.
