Dear francesca,
This symposium sounds wonderful indeed. Unfortuneately I am unable to attend at
this time of year as we are in the middle of a teaching semester. I would love
to hear some of the discussions - are you planning to publish after the event?
If so can I please order a copy. I am a practicing artist, art historian and am
occasionally asked to curate shows. My last one was actually at Oxford
University in conjunction with the INSAP Conference in 2003. I hope to hear
from you.
Best wishes, and enjoy the symposium.
