The deadline for session proposals is COB Monday 22 May 2020 Please see the submission instructions below. All enquiries to conf@aaanz.info.

Publication | AAANZ 2013 conference proceedings now published

by Katrina Grant • December 17, 2020

Selected papers from last year’s AAANZ conference ‘Inter-Discipline’ have been published. From the preface: ‘Inter-discipline’ was the annual conference of the Art Association of Australia and New Zealand, held at Melbourne from 7 – 9 December 2013.
