CFP: Interiorities: Artistic, Conceptual and Historical Reassessments of the Interior

Interiorities: Artistic, Conceptual and Historical Reassessments of the Interior
Deadline: 31 Dec, 2016
Palgrave Communications, the multi-disciplinary open access HSS journal published by Palgrave Macmillan is inviting proposals for a special issue titled, ‘Interiorities: artistic, conceptual and historical reassessments of the interior’ (Guest editor: Dr Vlad Ionescu, Faculty of Architecture and Art, Hasselt University, Belgium). The special issue addresses Interiority as a concept debated by artists and philosophers, historians and sociologists alike. The goal of this interdisciplinary collection is to approach interiority and the interior as relational entities that interact with architectural spaces, visual arts and music, social and political ideologies, geographical and historical structures. We welcome contributions that address the interior as an opportunity to research the status of the subjectivity in modernity and beyond. Article proposals and enquiries should be sent to the Managing Editor at Palcomms@palgrave.com
Deadline for article proposals: now extended to December 2016
Final deadline for full submissions: March 2017
