Celebrating the 10th Anniversary of The Courtauld’s
Peer-reviewed Postgraduate Research Journal
09.45 – 17.30, Saturday 17 January 2015 (with registration from
09.00)
Kenneth Clark Lecture Theatre, The Courtauld Institute of Art, Somerset
House, Strand, London WC2R 0RN
Immediations – The Courtauld Institute of Art’s peer-reviewed postgraduate
research journal – celebrated its 10th Anniversary in 2014. The first
research journal to be produced by The Courtauld Institute of Art since its
inception in 1932, Immediations has spent its first decade publishing
innovative research from across the entire span of art history –
chronological, methodological and geographical. The journal provides an
invaluable first step in academic publishing for Courtauld postgraduate
students and alumni, and its former contributors and editors have gone on
to become leaders in their various scholarly fields.
This conference celebrates a successful first ten years, and presents
papers by twelve of Immediations’ most illustrious former contributors and
editors. There is no thematic threshold; instead, papers will be focused on
speakers’ current research, with speakers having been asked to
incorporate reflections on the role of working with Immediations at the start
of their academic lives in the arc of their research. This one-day conference
will explore and promote the value of early-career publishing in the history
of art and architecture, and art conservation, in the twenty-first century.
Organised by Harriette Peel, Eva Bezverkhny, Marie Collier, Jessica
Eisenthal, Lily Foster, Lydia Hansell, Laura Sanders, and Maria Alessia
Rossi (The Courtauld Institute of Art)
