A Call for abstracts, proposals, exhibitions, installations and/or special performances
September 2002 saw the beginning of the Art of Management and Organization Conference in London. Our aim was, and continues to be, the exploration and promotion of the arts (in the most inclusive sense) as a means of understanding management and organization(al) life.
This conference has given rise to a vibrant global community of praxis – including scholars and practitioners. The conference has resided in London (2002), Paris (2004), Krakow (2006), Banff (2008) and in 2010 – we will travel to Istanbul, Turkey.
With each new conference in the series we aim to offer a different experience for our attendees. The fourth conference at Banff drew on the relationships between the conference and the outdoors. In 2010 the aim is to change our focus again and this time to draw on the unique splendor of Istanbul.
Istanbul is something very different. It is a vibrant, cosmopolitan and diverse city. Apart from being historically and architecturally spectacular, with a skyline of mosques and minarets, Istanbul is the only city in the world that lies on two continents – the gateway between Asia and Europe. This sizzling Turkish metropolis of spice markets, bazaars, mosques and mosaics is spread over seven hills and surrounded on three sides by water. It is astonishingly beautiful, exotic and utterly captivating. A bonus for us is that in 2010 Istanbul will be the European City of Culture.
Our venue for the conference offers a combination of formal and informal spaces that characterise the versatility necessary for a conference of our nature. santralistanbul is an arts and cultural complex situated within the Silahtarağa campus of Istanbul Bilgi University, a site that was formerly the first power station of the Ottoman Empire. Arts, cultural, educational and social buildings of santralistanbul are all housed in the facilities of the former Silahtarağa Power Station. For further information about this fantastic venue please copy the following link into your web browser: http://www.santralistanbul.org/
You will see below that the continuing growth, diversity and strength of the field of art and aesthetics in organizations, along with this exciting location, has inspired a number of innovative and stimulating calls for papers.
For us this all adds to the potential for a very exciting Fifth Art of Management and Organization Conference, and we hope you will consider joining us in this ongoing quest into art and aesthetics in organizations.
