SESAC 2025 Annual Conference 2025: Flux / Flow

The Southeastern College Art Conference (SESAC) 2025 annual conference will be held on the 22nd–25th of October 2025 at the Hilton Cincinnati Netherland Plaza in downtown Cincinnati, Ohio. This year’s conference theme, Flux / Flow, explores the distinct yet interconnected concepts of change and continuity in artistic practice. While Flux refers to a state of ongoing transformation, flow conveys continuity and progression, whether through time, movement, or experience.

The conference will examine how art emerges, adapts, and responds within shifting cultural contexts, highlighting the fluidity of artistic journeys across history and into the present. The programme will include a range of presentations, discussions, and exhibitions.

TIPP! Call for Paper

Women in Photography 1839-1939

The Brera Academy of Fine Arts in Milan will host the final conference of the PRIN 2022 PNRR NextGenerationEU-funded project „Fotografiste: Women in Photography from Italian Archives, 1839–1939“, on November 20–21, 2025. The international conference aims to give visibility to the often-overlooked contributions of women in the first century of photography  and revise dominant historical accounts which centre prominent male figures and businesses.

Contributions, that adopt inclusive, interdisciplinary, and transnational approaches are encouraged. Potential topics could include:

  • alternatives to dominant narratives shaped by traditional art history
  • examination of previously overlooked women’s roles in photography by using diverse sources and underexplored archival materials that have rarely been considered by historians of photography
  • identification of the roles and functions women played within photographic culture, industry, and businesses, with an exploration of how these roles have transformed over time
  • exploration of trans-disciplinary, transnational, and materially oriented historical narratives on photography, linked to the history of women’s emancipation, and deeply informed by cultural, social, and economic history
  • archival standards and descriptions of photographic materials that are informed by women’s history and gender studies
  • the impact of dominant historical narratives within the ecosystems of archives
  • use of digital humanities to analyse historical sources to propose innovative methodologies of data processing to reveal possible connections and cross paths of women’s careers
  • projects that emphasize citizens’ rights to access photographic heritage and their active participation in its preservation and valorization

Abstracts of 300- 400 words along with a short biography of 200-300 words should be submitted to fotografiste.conference@gmail.com by 15 June 2025.
