Call for articles, (audio-)visual essays, and others
Deadline: December 01, 2012
The upcoming special issue of Cadernos de Arte e Antropologia (Journal
of Art and Anthropology, CadernosAA) – “Anthropology, ethnography and
artistic praxis” – aims to make a contribution to the ongoing reflection
on the relations between art, ethnography and anthropology, drawing on
the work of social scientists and artists alike, within their respective
fields of knowledge and expression.
Artistic practices are a sophisticated way for the analysis and
comprehension of today’s world, allowing access to the multiple senses
of agency, and projects of different social agents. Proposals for
publication within the various sections of the journal (Articles,
Audio-visual essays, Ethno-arts, Field diaries, Review essays) should
consider at least one of the following aspects, which reflect some of
the current trends of the academic discussion of the links between art
and anthropology:
1) The understanding of art as a system of action (Gell), and the way
such a perspective may contribute to the analysis of art-worlds (Becker)
and their networks of intentionality, comprising the contexts of
production, circulation and reception of artistic work.
2) Questioning of the methodological “traffic” between art and
anthropology, with regard to anthropology’s “relational” practices and
its representation of the “Other” (Schneider e Wrigth).
Guest editors: Sonia Vespeira de Almeida e Ilka Boaventura Leite.
