CFP: Law in Art Conference – Perth, Australia

University of Western Australia

The University of Western Australia Law School invites calls for papers for the Art in Law in Art Conference on July 4-5, 2017.

Art in Law in Art is an interdisciplinary conference investigating the broad themes of how law sees visual art, and how visual art sees law. The Conference will be an exciting mix of different perspectives from international experts on the art-law nexus, as scholars, practitioners and artists come together and exchange ideas.

THEMES: The Conference has two main themes:

1. Art in Law: law touches upon a range of legal topics and areas, and this theme explores the full breadth and depth of issues.

2. Law in Art: this theme explores how law is perceived and represented by artists and theorists. This theme explores the broad question of how the law is perceived in the theory and practice of visual art.
