Style: The 2009 World Picture Conference
October 23-24, 2009
Oklahoma State University
Stillwater, Oklahoma
STYLE
Keynote Speakers:
Edward Branigan (University of California, Santa Barbara)
&
Alexander García Düttmann (Goldsmiths College)
We believe the question of style is in need of new thinking, across
media, disciplines and modes of thought. We hope, therefore, to receive
abstracts that reflect or extend out of any number of approaches to the
question of style (theoretical, philosophical, historical, formal,
generic, etc.). Our conference (like our journal) is inflected by a
strong interest in the intersection of political and aesthetic
questions concerning cinema, visual art, and visual theory, but we
encourage the submission of abstracts that do not necessarily occupy
themselves with the cinema and/or the visual.
Proposals (250 words), including a brief bio, should be sent to Brian
Price at
brian.price@okstate.edu by June 1.

with a strong emphasis on the visual, the cinematic, the televisual,
and contemporary art. It appears twice annually and is online and open
access.
